These bacterial virulence determinants interact with the host immune response and may contribute to the pathogenesis of TSLS. In Belgium, 12 cases of necrotizing fasciitis were reported over the past 4 years in Brussels, of which 9 were fatal despite antimicrobial and surgical therapy. According to...
Complications were present in 33 patients (85%), mortality in 7 (18%), and sequelae in 29 (91%) of 32 surviving patients. The significant risk factor related to a fatal outcome was immunosuppression. Conclusions Necrotizing fasciitis in children is frequently misdiagnosed, and several features ...

Necrotizing fasciitis was first described by Meleney in 1926 as a synergistic bacterial gangrene (4). It refers to a progressive, rapidly spreading, inflammatory infection located in the deep fascia, with secondary necrosis of the subcutaneous tissues, dermis, and the underlying muscles. For more ...

Necrotizing fasciitis or necrotizing soft-tissue infections (NSTIs) are infrequent but highly lethal infections. They can be defined as infections of any of the layers within the soft tissue compartm...
This occurs when the appendix perforates into abdominal wall tissues and causes a rapidly progressive bacterial infection of the fascia. The diagnosis is often delayed due to the unusual presentation of this common disease. Necrotizing fasciitis is a life-threatening event, which requires immediate ...
Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a relatively rare soft-tissue infection that is characterized by rapidly widespread necrosis of the fascia and subcutaneous tissue.We discuss the successful saving of an 80-year-old woman with necrotizing fasciitis of the abdominal wall caused by invasive group D Enteroc...
