Abstract

Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common causes of skin and soft tissue infections. S.aureus strains are usually catalase-positive although catalase-negative strain infections are rarely reported. We report a soft tissue infection due to a catalase-negative S.aureus isolate.

Özet

Staphylococcus aureus cilt ve yumuşak doku infeksiyonlannın en sık sebeplerinden biridir. S.aureus suşları genellikle katalaz pozitif olmakla birlikte, katalaz negatif suşlara bağlı infeksiyonlar nadir de olsa bildirilmiştir. Bu yazıda da katalaz negatif S.aureus izolatı ile oluşan bir yumuşak doku infeksiyonu olgusu bildirilmektedir.
