摘要
Necrotizing fasciitis is a commonly encountered modality by a practicing clinician which needs urgent and vigilant management. To decrease the potential morbidity and mortality of the pathology, an aggressive multimodal approach shows promising results. In our report, we present a case of a three -year -old male child who presented to us with the findings consistent with necrotizing fasciitis. The case report highlights the importance of multimodal approach in such a case.
