The global dynamics of a periodic SIS epidemic model with maturation delay is investigated. We first obtain sufficient conditions for the single population growth equation to admit a globally attractive positive periodic solution. Then we introduce the basic reproduction ratio $\mathcal{R}_0$ for the epidemic model, and show that the disease dies out when $\mathcal{R}_0<1$, and the disease remains endemic when $\mathcal{R}_0>1$. Numerical simulations are also provided to confirm our analytic results.
