Abstract

• Necrotizing fasciitis was diagnosed in 16 patients duringthe years 1980 to 1984. All patients were managed by a uniformprotocol consisting of radical excisional surgery, intravenousantibiotics, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. An overall mortalityrate of 12.5% was achieved. In view of the encouraging results,this therapeutic regimen is highly recommended.
