Abstract:
Necrotizing fasciitis is a rare condition which usually affects the trunk, perineum and limbs. Head and neck involvement is very uncommon and in most cases it is secondary to orbital or dental infection. We report a case of craniofacial necrotizing fasciitis (CNF) secondary to a maxillary sinusitis. The patient was treated intensively with antibiotics, surgical procedures and life-support measures. Despite all efforts, the patient died one week after admission. This case highlights early diagnosis and aggressive management as decisive factors for the outcome of the patient.
