Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a rare but potentially life-threatening disease. Because of its aggressiveness and multi-organ involvement, the patient's greatest hope (and at the same time a stumbling block for his broad differential diagnosis) is the recognition of this syndrome and adequate therapy. In the last 40 years, only 156 cases of non-menstrual TSS have been described in domestic literature, of which 29 ended fatally [1], therefore we also present one such case report from our workplace.
Keywords: toxic shock syndrome, septic shock, staphylococcal enterotoxin C.
