Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a potentially fatal, progressive and life-threatening illness. For its rare incidence and easy mismatch

with more commonly occuring nosological units, TSS is seldom mentioned in terms of differential diagnostic. But for life support, it is

essential to recognize the TSS symptoms early and implement immediate and sufficient treatment. This article summarizes TSS from its

pathogenesis to therapy and discusses personal example from practice.
