Core Tip |
Group A Streptococcus (GAS; Streptococcus pyogenes) causes a broad spectrum of infections, including skin and soft tissue infections, tonsillitis, postpartum endometritis, puerperal sepsis, necrotizing soft tissue infection, and toxic shock syndrome (TSS). Though GAS infection and streptococcal TSS rarely happen after hemorrhoid treatment, all surgeons should be aware of the potential complications of severe sepsis after hemorrhoidectomy and keep in mind their clinical presenting features in order to diagnose early and administer appropriate and effective therapeutic drugs early. |
