GANGRENE AND FOURNIER'S GANGRENE
Urologic Clinics of North America, 1992Fournier's gangrene is an aggressive disease affecting the perineum. Clearly, it can no longer by considered idiopathic in its origin, as most infection can be localized to a cutaneous, urethral, or rectal source. It presents in a broad age range and can have an indolent onset, thus requiring a high index of suspicion.

Fournier's gangrene can still be a life-threatening condition with a high mortality rate. Diagnosis and treatment should be prompt and adequate. Radiological studies may help to define the extent of the disease preoperatively in cases in which this is unclear. Surgery with extensive debridement of all necrotic tissue is the mainstay of treatment.

Fournier's gangrene (FG) is a synergistic polymicrobial gangrenous infection of the perineum, scrotum and penis which is characterised by obliterative endarteritis of the subcutaneous arteries, resulting in gangrene of the subcutaneous tissue and the overlying skin. FG affects all ages and both genders, with a male preponderance.

Fournier gangrene is a necrotizing infection involving the soft tissues of the male genitalia. It was first described in 1764 by Baurienne and given its eponymous name after Jean-Alfred Fournier in 1883 presented a case of perineal gangrene in an otherwise healthy young man.

Fournier’s gangrene: Is it scrotal gangrene?
Advances in Therapy, 2008Fournier's gangrene was originally described as scrotal gangrene in young males. Today, it is generally accepted as synergistic necrotizing fasciitis of perineal, genital, or perianal regions, and the epidemiologic data have changed. However, there are still limited data about females due to the lack of female patients, even in large case series.A ...
