Abstract
Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS) is an acute multisystem disease that has been recognized to occur in a variety of clinical settings. Postoperative TSS has been described following nasal surgery associated with the use of postoperative nasal packing. We report a case of classic TSS following septoplasty where intranasal splints without nasal packing were used. Recommendations for prevention of TSS associated with nasal surgery are presented.Entities:
