Digestive Surgery, 1995
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.

Tropical Doctor, 2004
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

Periorbital Necrotizing Fasciitis
Journal of General Internal Medicine, 2022Periorbital necrotizing fasciitis carries serious risks of loss of vision, eye, and life, and thus represents a true emergency. As such, clinicians must have an appropriate index of suspicion for necrotizing fasciitis and, upon recognition, need to address the disease rapidly and thoroughly.

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.

Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2001
Necrotizing fasciitis continues to occur due to beta-haemolytic streptococci but is now also recognized as being due to Vibrio spp. in fishermen and those in contact with warm water in the Gulf of Mexico and South-East Asia, including Hong Kong. Magnetic resonance image scanning has identified the extent of fasciitis and soft tissue oedema infiltrating

Pediatric Emergency Care, 2011
Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a rare, rapidly progressive bacterial soft tissue infection with a high risk for morbidity and mortality. Although more common in adults, NF also affects the pediatric population. Many bacterial organisms can cause NF, but group A Streptococcus is the most common monomicrobial cause of disease.

Craniocervical Necrotizing Fasciitis
Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1984Craniocervical necrotizing fasciitis (CCNF) is a severe, progressive bacterial infection of the cervical fascia. The most significant manifestations of this disease are extensive fascial necrosis with widespread undermining of the surrounding tissues and extreme systemic toxicity.

Cervicofacial necrotizing fasciitis
Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice, 2006Cervical necrotizing fasciitis is a fast spreading acute soft tissue inflammation. Death can occur within 12-24 h. Early identification and treatment is needed. We report the case of a 75 year old woman with diabetes and high cholesterol, adipositas who developed cervical necrotizing fasciitis of odotongenic origin with massive subcutaneous air ...

Cervical Necrotizing Fasciitis
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1997Cervical necrotizing fasciitis (CNF) is an aggressive infection of the head and neck with high complication and mortality rates. Sixty-eight cases of CNF have been reported in the English-language literature. We present a series of 8 patients with CNF, including 5 men and 3 women ranging in age from 25 to 92 years.
