One of the severe adverse effects of intra-articular injection in the knee is septic arthritis of the knee joint. Staphylococcus aureus is the most frequent pathogen of septic arthritis. Staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS) refers to a spectrum of blistering skin diseases caused by S. aureus exfoliative toxins. Although SSSS is rarely observed in adults, the mortality rate is high in adult cases. We report a case of SSSS due to septic knee arthritis after intra-articular hyaluronic acid injections.
