Predicting Mortality in Fournier Gangrene and Validating the Fournier Gangrene Severity Index: Our Experience with 50 Patients in a Tertiary Care Center in India.

Objective: To identify factors that dictate morbidity and mortality in patients with Fournier's Gangrene and validate the Fournier gangrene severity index (FGSI).

Materials And Methods: We prospectively studied 50 patients with FG from January 2016 to December 2016 pertaining to their presenting signs, intraoperative findings, and postoperative wound management and outcome. We also checked the power of the FGSI to predict the outcome of the patients in terms of mortality.
