摘要: Abstract Pyogenic streptococci cause significant morbidity and mortality, the incidence of invasive group C G streptococcal disease appears to be increasing. In this retrospective study we describe epidemiological characteristics A, G, along with non-invasive infections in Western Norway from 1999 2013. A total 512 were identified, these 297 (58%) (GAS), 24 (5%) (GCS) 188 (37%) (GGS). group, 4935 GCS GGS-infections identified. GGS treated as one (GCGS) for statistical purposes. All microbial categories displayed increasing age, seasonal variation a male predominance. The GCGS increased significantly 1.4/100 000 inhabitants 6.3/100 2013 (p emm- types among 209 iGAS-isolates analysed emm1 (24%), emm3 (14%) emm28 (14%); whereas stG643 (19%), stG485 (15%) stG6 (13%) most prevalent 122 iGCGS-isolates available typing. burden β-haemolytic our community calls sustained attentiveness clinical molecular aspects GAS, infections.
