Fatal Necrotizing Fasciitis as a Consequence of Blunt Trauma: A Case Report
Necrotizing fasciitis is an uncommon lethal bacterial infection that involves the subcutaneous tissue and fascia. It can be mono or polymicrobial infection. The diagnosis is mainly dependent on clinical signs and symptoms. Trauma is the commonest cause for it. The early signs and symptoms may mimic cellulitis. We present a case of necrotizing fasciitis following an assault. The patient was received in a state of shock. Despite all measures, the patient could not be saved. Early debridement and antibiotic therapy have a key role in the prognosis of the disease. Medicolegal issues can arise when the disease develops post-assault because of the vague and unpredictable nature of the disease and its challenging prognosis.
