Purpose: Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a scarce but potentially life-threatening infection. However, no research has reported the cellular heterogeneity in patients with NF. We aim to investigate the change of cells from deep fascia in response to NF by single-cell RNA-seq.

A high level of clinical suspicion is necessary to make the diagnosis. We present 3 cases of NSTI illustrating our diagnostic and therapeutic approach.

() is a Gram-negative, halophilic bacillus known for causing severe infections such as gastroenteritis, necrotizing fasciitis, and septic shock, with mortality rates exceeding 50% in high-risk individuals. Transmission occurs primarily through the consumption of contaminated seafood, exposure of open wounds to infected water, or, in rare cases, insect bites. The bacterium thrives in warm, brackish waters with high salinity levels, and its prevalence is rising due to the effects of climate change, including warming ocean temperatures and expanding coastal habitats.

Introduction: necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a rare soft tissue infection that leads to sepsis and death without an early surgical treatment. LRINEC (laboratory risk indicator for necrotizing fasciitis) scale is one of the most accepted tests for diagnosis. This study presents a retrospective evaluation of the usefulness of the LRINEC scale in the diagnosis and prognosis of NF.

Introduction: Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a rapidly progressive life-threatening infection involving necrosis of subcutaneous tissues and fascia. Though it mainly affects the extremities, perineum and abdominal wall, it rarely affects the breast.
Presentation Of Case: A 30-year-old woman on postpartum day seven presented with one-day history of fever with chills and rigors and painful, swollen and tender left breast.
