Necrotising fasciitis as a complication of steroid injection.

R Birkinshaw1, J O'Donnell, I Sammy.   

Abstract

Necrotising fasciitis is described as a complication of steroid injection of a painful shoulder in a previously well female. This case highlights a very rare life threatening emergency after steroid injection. Early recognition, resuscitation, and aggressive surgical management are essential to prevent mortality in this condition.
