Group A beta-hemolytic streptococcal glossal necrotizing myositis--case report and review.

Robert H Baevsky1, Jay T Ishida, Stephen A Lieberman.   

Abstract

We report the first case of glossal necrotizing myositis by group A beta-hemolytic Streptococcus in an 8-year-old girl on chronic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, immunomodulators, and steroids for juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. Treatment included partial glossectomy and parenteral antibiotics. After a critical course, full recovery ensued. The subject of necrotizing myositis is reviewed.
