Escolar de once años con cuadro inicial de monoartritis de rodilla derecha por traumatismo local, fi ebre, trastorno del sensorio y disnea. Es hospitalizado y recibe tratamiento antibiótico empírico. El hemocultivo resulta positivo para Streptococcus pyogenes, por lo que se decide corregir la cobertura antibiótica. Sin embargo, el estado general del paciente empieza a decaer e ingresa a la unidad de cuidados intensivos. A pesar del tratamiento instaurado, el sujeto desarrolla shock séptico y posteriormente falla multiorgánica, requiriendo soporte hemodinámico y ventilatorio. Los síntomas se agravan y fallece a las 38 horas de su admisión hospitalaria.An 11-year-old scholar arrives in the emergency room with right-knee monoarthritis due to local trauma, fever, sensory loss, and dyspnea. He is hospitalized and receives empiric antibiotic therapy. The blood culture set is positive for Streptococcus pyogenes and the antibiotic spectrum is changed. However, the patient’s general status deteriorates, and he is admitted to the intensive care unit. Even with the treatment received, he develops septic shock and multiorganic failure, requiring hemodynamic and ventilatory support. Thirty-eight hours after his admission, the patient dies.
