Despite its characteristic clinical presentation, data on long\u2010term epidemiologic patterns and antimicrobial susceptibility in pediatric SSSS remain limited. This study aimed to describe demographic features, microbiological findings, and antimicrobial susceptibility trends in children with SSSS over a 10\u2010year period preceding the COVID\u201019 pandemic.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We retrospectively reviewed children diagnosed with SSSS who were admitted to a tertiary pediatric referral center between 2009 and 2018.
