ABSTRACT

La gangrena de Fournier es una fascitis necrotizante perineal grave atribuida a la acción sinérgica de diversos patógenos asociados a factores predisponentes del huésped, como la inmunosupresión. A pesar de que se han descripto manifestaciones extraintestinales de salmonelosis, es infrecuente su identificación como agente causal de infecciones de partes blandas; menos común aún es su implicación en la gangrena de Fournier. Nuestro objetivo es describir la presentación, manejo y desenlace de un caso de gangrena de Fournier con cultivos positivos para Salmonella enteritidis.


Fournier's Gangrene is a severe perineal necrotizing fasciitis attributed to the synergistic action of various pathogens associated with host predisposing factors, such as immunosuppression. Although extraintestinal manifestations of salmonellosis have been described, its identification as a causative agent of soft tissue infections is infrequent and its involvement in the Fournier's Gangrene is even less common. Our objective is to describe the presentation, management and outcome of a Fournier's Gangrene case with positive cultures for Salmonella enteritidis.
