Abstrakt: A 38-day-old prematurely born infant developed rapidly progressive facial cellulitis in association with ipsilateral submandibular lymphadenopathy and pulmonary consolidation. Group B streptococci (GBS) were isolated from blood, endotracheal, and lesion cultures. Prompt recognition of GBS cellulitis-adenitis and institution of parenteral, synergistic antibiotic therapy are important.
