  • Title: Two familial cases of perianal streptococcal dermatitis.
    Author: Lunghi F, Finzi M, Frati C.
    Journal: Cutis; 2001 Sep; 68(3):183-4. PubMed ID: 11579781.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of perianal streptococcal dermatitis (PSD) occurred in a brother and sister, aged 4 and 6 years, respectively. The diagnosis was confirmed by the detection of group A beta-hemolytic streptococci in the perineal area and pharynx of both patients. We emphasize the importance of a quick and accurate diagnosis of the infection because PSD is frequently confused with other perianal diseases of infancy.
