Necrotizing fasciitis: a rare complication of appendicitis.

J F Mazza, J S Augenstein, D J Kreis.   

Abstract

The mortality of acute appendicitis increases sixfold if perforation occurs. We have reported a case of perforated appendix complicated by necrotizing fasciitis of the abdominal wall and retroperitoneum. We believe this complication has not been previously described in the English literature.
