Toxic shock syndrome commonly occurs in menstruating women, but it is known to be associated with a variety of staphylococcal infections. We report a case of nonmenstrual toxic shock syndrome in an 11-year-old male who presented with altered consciousness and infected poison oak dermatitis of the feet. This is the first reported case of toxic shock syndrome associated with poison oak dermatitis. The signs and symptoms, laboratory findings, and treatment of toxic shock syndrome are reviewed.
