We describe a case of fatal lower limb necrotizing fasciitis in a 65-year-old man who was treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics, limb amputation and tissue debridement. The causative organism was identified by PCR as Haemophilus influenzae serotype f, which is a highly unusual cause of necrotizing fasciitis.
我们描述了一例65岁男性致命性下肢坏死性筋膜炎的病例，该患者接受了广谱抗生素、肢体截肢和组织清创治疗。通过聚合酶链反应（PCR）鉴定出致病微生物为f型流感嗜血杆菌，这是坏死性筋膜炎一种极为罕见的病因。
