Overview
Historical Perspective
- Staphylococcus aureus was discovered in 1880's which was the major cause of skin and soft tissue infections such as boils, scalded skin syndrome and impetigo.[1]
- Carl Alois Philipp Garrè (12 December 1857, Ragaz – 6 March 1928) who was a Swiss surgeon, proved that Staphylococcus aureus causes carbuncles and boils by experimenting on himself and had one condition named after himself, Garre's sclerosing osteomyelitis (sclerosing osteitis – form of chronic osteomyelitis with proliferative periostitis).[2]
