Staph Scalded Skin Syndrome presents with terrifying skin desquamation but typically heals without scarring within two weeks. This case demonstrates the classic presentation in a three-year-old child with recent URI, highlighting the typical appearance, clinical course, and management principles.
• Staph Scalded Skin Syndrome results from staphylococcal toxins that cleave the epidermis
• Most common in young children, often following upper respiratory infections
• No mucosal involvement - key differentiating factor from Stevens-Johnson Syndrome
• Treatment includes anti-staphylococcal antibiotics and supportive care
• Colonization site may be difficult to identify, often in nares or umbilical region
• Adults with renal disease are at higher risk due to impaired toxin clearance
• Requires burn-like supportive care for temperature regulation and prevention of secondary infections
• Historically had 5% mortality, likely lower with modern intensive care
