: Staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS) primarily affects children and rarely adults with immunodepression. We describe two cases of adults diagnosed with SSSS with no additional cause of immunological compromise other than obesity and uncontrolled diabetes. An increased risk of infection should be considered in cases of obesity and diabetes.

We describe two cases of adults diagnosed with SSSS with no additional cause of immunological compromise other than obesity and uncontrolled diabetes.
