    Author: Baxter M, Morgan M.
    Journal: Emerg Infect Dis; 2017 Jan; 23(1):127-129. PubMed ID: 27983491.
    Abstract:
    We describe successful management of 3 patients with streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS) attributable to group G Streptococcus infection. This small series supports recognition of group G Streptococcus in the etiology of STSS. We propose intravenous immunoglobulin be used in treatment as it is for STSS caused by group A Streptococcus.
