Abstract EN
Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a potentially lethal but rare complication of influenza infection.
We report a case of TSS and influenza A infection in a 5-year-old boy without respiratory symptoms, in whom tracheal aspirate bacterial culture grew a toxin-producing strain of Staphylococcus aureus.
Bacterial culture of the upper respiratory tract should be considered in patients with influenza-associated toxic shock syndrome.
