Figure Legend:
This is the same child as in image 123_60 with early desquamation that was followed by complete recovery without scarring of the skin. Patients with this variant of staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome do not manifest Nikolsky sign formation. Skin cracks in the areas of the eyes and mouth are common. Courtesy of Edgar O.
