Abstract
Dear Editor, Staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS) is a rare dermatologic disease caused by toxigenic strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Adult SSSS is less common than pediatric cases of the disease, likely due to the development of immunity early in life, but has a higher fatality rate 1-3 . These facts hint at the different clinical nature of SSSS between patients of different ages.
