Rectum Perforation Complicated Necrotizing Fasciitis Present as Lumbar Disc Herniation: Case Report.

Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is an infection of the deep soft tissues that results in progressive destruction of the muscle fascia and overlying subcutaneous fat. These infections can be sudden, vicious, and fast-spreading. If not treated quickly with antibiotics and debridement of the infected tissue, the patient may develop septic shock, which may lead to multiple organ failure and death.
