Necrotizing fasciitis was diagnosed in 16 patients during the years 1980 to 1984. All patients were managed by a uniform protocol consisting of radical excisional surgery, intravenous antibiotics, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. An overall mortality rate of 12.5% was achieved.

Necrotizing fasciitis is a lethal and insidious disease with a high mortality. It often begins in areas exposed to fecal or urinary contamination, and about 70% of cases occur in diabetics. A high index of suspicion should be maintained in diabetic patients with an infection in the perineum, genitalia, thigh, or buttocks.

We reviewed 13 cases of necrotizing fasciitis who presented between 1988 and 1992; of these 5 patients (38%) died. Early diagnosis and aggressive surgical debridement are essential to the successful management of necrotizing fasciitis. © 1995 S. Karger AG, Basel.

Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a rare but rapidly progressive and potentially fatal disease condition. It is characterized by progressive inflammation and extensive necrosis of the subcutaneous tissue and fascia, sparing the underlying tissue. It is a poly-bacterial infection and is associated with profound systemic toxicity, considerable morbidity and

Two patients had limited necrotizing fascilitis. The morbidity and mortality from this infectious necrotizing process of the superficial fascia have not changed significantly since its initial description in 1924. The characteristic clinical findings of necrotizing fascilitis makes early recognition possible.

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2009
Necrotizing fasciitis is a rare but life-threatening soft-tissue infection characterized by rapidly spreading inflammation and subsequent necrosis of the fascial planes and surrounding tissue. Infection typically follows trauma, although the inciting insult may be as minor as a scrape or an insect bite.

The diagnosis of necrotizing fasciitis [PDF]
Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2005 A delay in the diagnosis and appropriate treatment of necrotizing fasciitis has clearly been demonstrated to increase mortality. However, paucity of specific cutaneous signs makes early recognition extremely difficult. This review highlights recent developments in the approaches to the diagnosis of necrotizing fasciitis.A clinical staging of ...
