Treatment of Necrotizing Fasciitis With NovoSorb Biodegradable Temporizing Matrix and RECELL Autologous Skin Cell...

This case series reviews the management of 2 patients who developed a rare, aggressive soft tissue infection, necrotizing fasciitis treated with a synthetic polyurethane dermal regenerative template, Biodegradable Temporizing Matrix (NovoSorb BTM) in conjunction with an off-label use of RECELL device applying autologous skin cell suspension and a split-thickness skin graft for reconstruction. The clinical relevance describes a non-traditional patient's course of treatment and clinical outcome using BTM and RECELL for necrotizing fasciitis. The 2 patients survived with acceptable outcomes and timely healing despite a high chance of mortality and likely amputation secondary to the extensive surface area and anatomical location of the infection.
