Künt Travmaya gkincil GecikmiL Bir Nekrotizan Fasiit Olgusu

Nekrotizan fasiit (NF) deri, deri altÖ doku, fasya ve kas tabakasÖnÖ tutan, hÖzla invazyon ve yayÖlÖm göstererek yaLamÖ tehdit eden nadir bir yumuLak doku enfeksiyonudur. Tedavi, klinik olarak erken Lüphe ile uygun antibiyoterapi deste?inin sa?lanmasÖ ve cerrahi müdahalenin hÖzlÖ ve agresif olarak yapÖlmasÖyla mümkün olabilmektedir. Ancak bilinmelidir ki, NF tüm müdahalele- re, etkili tedavi protokolleri ve hasta bakÖmÖna ra?men yönetimi zor olan bir hastalÖktÖr. Olguda, yüksekten düLme ile gluteal bölgeden künt travmaya maruz kalmÖL ve klini?imize baLvurana kadar bir hafta süre ile perianal ve sa? alt ekstremite a?rÖsÖ için sadece semptomatik tedavi verilmiL bir nekrotizan fasiit olgusu sunulmuLtur.

Necrotizing Fasciitis Secondary to Blunt Trauma

Necrotizing fasciitis is a rare, rapidly progressive, and potentially fatal soft tissue infection of the skin, subcutaneous tissue, fascia, or muscles. Only early clinical suspicion, appropriate an- timicrobials, rapid and aggressive surgical debridement can reduce mortality and morbidity. Even with effective treatment andall care interventions, necrotizing fasciitis is a disease that is difficult to manage. In this report, we present a necrotizing fasciitis case of a 48-year-old male with blunt gluteal trauma after falling on stairs.
