Disseminated staphylococcal disease comprises a set of clinical manifestations secondary to multiple organ invasion that may range from cellulitis to sepsis. In pediatrics, the most common complications are osteoarticular and cutaneous infection; however, this article presents rare manifestations such as glomerulonephritis and thrombotic phenomena. This is the report of two cases of previously healthy adolescents: one presented with osteomyelitis and kidney injury, and the other, with lower limb cellulitis and respiratory deterioration with septic pulmonary embolism. The diagnostic process and additional management are described, highlighting the role of oxacillin in therapy. This article aims to highlight the importance of considering the rare manifestations of S. aureus infection, when the clinical evolution is abnormal, in order to initiate a timely treatment and get a better prognosis.
La enfermedad diseminada por Staphylococcus aureus comprende un conjunto de manifestaciones clínicas secundarias a su invasión multiorgánica que van desde celulitis hasta sepsis. En pediatría, las complicaciones más comunes son las infecciones osteoarticular y cutánea; sin embargo, este artículo presenta algunas manifestaciones poco frecuentes, tales como la glomerulonefritis y los fenómenos trombóticos. Se presentan dos casos de pacientes adolescentes previamente sanos: el primero cursó con osteomielitis y lesión renal, y el segundo, con celulitis de miembro inferior, deterioro respiratorio y embolismo pulmonar séptico documentado. Se describe el proceso diagnóstico y manejos adicionales, y se resalta el papel de la oxacilina en la terapia. Este artículo pretende destacar la importancia de considerar las manifestaciones infrecuentes de la infección por S. aureus cuando la evolución clínica sea anormal para instaurar el tratamiento oportuno y propender por un mejor pronóstico.
