Evaluate the origin of Fournier gangrene (FG) as a prognostic factor of morbidity and mortality.
Patients who came to our clinic with a diagnosis of FG from 2010 to 2017 were included retrospectively. Patients were categorized depending on the origin of the infection. Three severity factors were determined in each group: days of hospital stay, the FG severity index, and mortality. Logistic regression test was performed to analyze the data.
Of the 130 patients evaluated, the origin was established in 121 based on the clinical history and radiological and surgical findings. Thirty-five patients had an intestinal origin with a mortality of 20.68%, 46 patients had a testicular origin with a mortality of 2.22%, 12 patients had a urinary origin with a mortality of 0%, and 28 patients with a cutaneous origin with a mortality of 16.6%. The testicular origin was the most frequent (38%) in addition to presenting a lower hospital stay, a lower FG severity index, and a lower mortality than those with an intestinal origin (P=.022).
The origin of the infection has a significant prognostic value in the mortality of the patient.
评估福尼尔坏疽(FG)的感染源作为发病率和死亡率的预后因素。
回顾性纳入2010年至2017年到我院就诊且诊断为FG的患者。根据感染源对患者进行分类。在每组中确定三个严重程度因素:住院天数、FG严重程度指数和死亡率。进行逻辑回归测试以分析数据。
在评估的130例患者中,根据临床病史以及放射学和手术结果,确定了121例患者的感染源。35例患者感染源为肠道,死亡率为20.68%;46例患者感染源为睾丸,死亡率为2.22%;12例患者感染源为泌尿,死亡率为0%;28例患者感染源为皮肤,死亡率为16.6%。除住院时间较短、FG严重程度指数较低以及死亡率低于肠道感染源患者外,睾丸感染源最为常见(38%)(P = 0.022)。
感染源对患者死亡率具有显著的预后价值。
