Case

: Woman 24 years old with no history of importance except being operated caesarean operation two months and a half without

incident, resulting in macrosomia product.

Enter a room trauma shock seizures witnessed at home and during transportation to the hospital, clouding, state initial shock,

hypoglycemia, fever, with a history of non-specific prodrome 7 days prior characterized by fatigue and weakness, adding fever 72

hours previous and also presenting with behavioral disorders disorientation 24 hrs prior to admission, the previous night generalized

purpuric dermatosis is added. Upon initial review apparently glasgow of 14, but disorientated and psychomotor agitation, presenting

shock unresponsive to water resuscitation initial, feverish with suspected neuroinfection, so she underwent cranial tomography

which is reported only discrete brain edema; passes intensive therapy for management of shock, after endotracheal intubation

seizures and involvement of consciousness. Upon arrival even with persistent hypotension despite double scheme amines (dopamine,

norepinephrine) and fluid resuscitation, also high ventilatory requirements with data from acute lung injury, in frank anuria and

acute renal injury, severe metabolic acidemia that warrants management bicarbonate, hematologic data franca fails with disseminated

intravascular coagulation and purpura generalized data. The antimicrobial management that had been initially with ceftriaxone-

vancomycin, leaving vancomycin-meropenem also dose intravenous hydrocortisone (500 mg) is given for suspected acute adrenal

insufficiency (manifested by shock, tendency to hypoglycemia, hyponatremia, hypokalemia) is set, is it gives renal support with

loop diuretic infusion as well as bicarbonate infusion. He remains in the intensive care unit for 10 hrs, no response to management,

a refractory shock, severe sepsis and multiple organ dysfunctions were considered. Since studied with neurological, metabolic and

hematological disorders, kidney damage, lung damage, criteria for disseminated intravascular coagulation coupled with widespread

purpura, Waterhouse-Friderich sensyndrome was considered, which was devastating for the patient. A 5-day incubation of blood

cultures growth coagulase-negative staphylococci were reported, being sensitive to Vancomycin, definitive bacteriological diagnosis,

staphylococcus haemolyticus. Negative serology for dengue and leptospirosis were reported, requested by endemic area meet such

conditions. First case reported in adults Waterhouse-Friderichsen syndrome secondary to

staphylococcus haemolyticus

is concluded.
