Résumé

Fournier’s gangrene is a rare, idiopathic, life-threatening, necrotizing fasciitis of the genitals and perineum caused by both aerobic and anaerobic bacterial flora. The synergistic effect of the bacteriae results in fulminating gangrene, multiple organ failure, and can even lead to death. Most commonly it has a predilection for diabetic and alcohol abused individuals, those who have impaired immunity. Genital trauma is frequently recognized vector for infection initiation. Timely recognition of the disease process and initiation of treatment with aggressive debridement and antibiotic administration is called for. The advanced age of the patient, extensive disease, delayed presentation with shock or sepsis and organ failures, all contribute to mortality in Fournier’s gangrene. In this case report, we recall an account of our tryst with Fournier’s gangrene management.
