摘　　要：BACKGROUND Necrotizing fasciitis is a fulminant necrotizing soft tissue disease with a high fatality rate.It always starts with impact on the deep fascia rapidly and might result in secondary necrosis of the subcutaneous tissue,fascia,and muscle.Thus,timely and multiple surgical operations are needed for the treatment.Meanwhile,the damage of skin and soft tissue caused by multiple surgical operations may require dermatoplasty and other treatments as a consequence.CASE SUMMARY Here,we report a case of 50-year-old male patient who was admitted to our hospital with symptoms of necrotizing fasciitis caused by cryptoglandular infection in the perianal and perineal region.The symptoms of necrotizing fasciitis,also known as the cardinal features,include hyperpyrexia,excruciatingly painful lesions,demonstration gas in the tissue,an obnoxious foul odor and uroschesis.The results of postoperative pathology met the diagnosis.Based on the premise of complete debridement,multiple incisions combined with thread-dragging therapy(a traditional Chinese medicine therapy)and intensive supportive therapies including comprising antibiotics,nutrition and fluids were given.The outcome of the treatment was satisfactory.The patient recovered quickly and achieved ideal anal function and morphology.CONCLUSION Timely and effective debridement and multiple incisions combined with thread-dragging therapy are an integrated treatment for necrotizing fasciitis.
