The laboratory data for 17 patients with group A beta-hemolytic streptococcal necrotizing fasciitis (
GAS
NF) were compared with data for 145 patients hospitalized for cellulitis during the same period. Admission values of C-reactive protein and
creatine kinase
were higher for patients in the group with
GAS
NF than for patients in the group with cellulitis (P<.001), suggesting that standard laboratory tests may be useful for the early differential diagnosis of
GAS
NF and cellulitis.
