Abstract

Necrotizing soft tissue infections are uncommon, rapidly progressive and life threatening characterized by subcutaneous tissue and fascial necrosis. Despite advances in modern medical therapy, the morbidity and mortality of retroperitoneal necrotizing soft tissue infections are still very high. Treatment principles include early diagnosis, repeated extensive debridement, broad spectrum antibiotics and supportive treatment. In this case report we discuss a necrotizing soft tissue infection involving retroperitoneal space after a shoulder trauma. Key words: Retroperitoneal space, Infection, Surgery

Özet

Nekrotizan yumuşak doku infeksiyonları, cilt altı dokuların ve fasyanın nekrozu ile karakterize hızlı ilerleyen ve hayatı tehdit eden nadir infeksiyonlardır. Modern medikal tedavideki ilerlemelere rağmen retroperitoneal nekrotizan yumuşak doku infeksiyonlarının morbidite ve mortalitesi hala yüksektir. Tedavi prensipler erken tanı, tekrarlayan geniş debridmanlar, geniş spektrumlu antibiyotikler ve destek tedaviyi içerir. Bu olgu sunumunda omuz travması sonrasında gelişen ve retroperitoneal bölgeyi tutan nekrotizan yumuşak doku infeksiyonu tartıştık. Anahtar kelimeler: Retroperitoneal alan, İnfeksiyon, Cerrahi
