Skin Infections Caused by Panton-Valentine Leukocidin and Methicillin-Susceptible Staphylococcus aureus in Child, Japan

28 May 2025

Abstract excerpt

We describe a pediatric case of recurrent skin infections caused by a Panton-Valentine leukocidin and exfoliative toxin E double-positive methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus clonal complex 188 clone. Most of the patient's family members were infected with the same strain, and intrafamilial transmission was strongly suspected. Decolonization procedures were not effective.
