A steam sterilizer is provided which comprises a sterilizer body, and a drying system disposed inside the sterilizer body. The drying system comprises an autoclave, a heating apparatus, a steam apparatus, a vacuuming apparatus and a return air apparatus, where the autoclave is connected with the heating apparatus, the steam apparatus, the vacuuming apparatus and the return air apparatus. The heating apparatus is used to heat the autoclave; the steam apparatus is used to fill steam into the autoclave; the vacuuming apparatus is used to vacuum the autoclave; and the return air apparatus is used to return air into the vacuumed autoclave. The sterilizer body is internally provided with an air-blowing apparatus used to stir an air current in the autoclave so that the air current in the autoclave can be stirred in a drying process; in a drying process, the heating apparatus heats the autoclave and the heat on the autoclave can be more easily transferred to a load under the action of flowing air, so as to speed up water evaporation. In this way, the drying efficiency and effect can be improved without increasing the vacuuming degree or the heating temperature or extending the drying time.
