Despite its rarity, Fournier's gangrene remains a potentially deadly disease. Rapid assessment and treatment is absolutely critical for patient survival. We present herein a classic case of Fournier's gangrene in an older male with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus and hypertension, including ultrasonographic and computed tomography imaging. The necrotizing infection involved the patient's entire scrotum and spread to the perineum as well, necessitating scrotectomy, and partial colostomy in addition to extensive debridement and skin grafting.
尽管福尼尔坏疽罕见,但它仍是一种潜在的致命疾病。快速评估和治疗对患者存活绝对至关重要。我们在此呈现一例老年男性福尼尔坏疽的典型病例,该患者患有未得到控制的糖尿病和高血压,包括超声和计算机断层扫描成像情况。坏死性感染累及患者整个阴囊并蔓延至会阴,除广泛清创和皮肤移植外,还需要进行阴囊切除术和部分结肠造口术。
