Fournier's gangrene reconstruction: A 10-year retrospective analysis of practice at Guys and St Thomas's NHS Foundation Trust.

Fournier's gangrene is a rare and potentially fatal condition that affects the external genitalia and perineum as a necrotizing soft-tissue infection. It is equally prevalent in men and women and although there are many ways to manage the condition, it must be done so effectively because there is a chance that life-threatening complications could develop. This retrospective study set out to fill any knowledge gaps, compare reconstructive options to those described in the literature, and promote reflection on current management.
