Serratia marcescens necrotizing fasciitis presenting as bilateral breast necrosis.

Tayyab Rehman1, Thomas A Moore, Leonardo Seoane.   

Abstract

Serratia marcescens is an extremely rare cause of necrotizing fasciitis. We report the first case of necrotizing fasciitis of the chest wall due to infection with S. marcescens that initially manifested as bilateral breast necrosis. The patient had a fulminant course leading to death within 72 h of presentation. Literature pertinent to S. marcescens-mediated necrotizing fasciitis is also reviewed.
