摘要：

Early recognition and treatment of necrotizing fasciitis reduce mortality rate which is 24.1% among neonates. Antibiotics and debridement are common treatments. Hyperbaric oxygen and negative pressure wound healing show potential but need further investigation. Necrotizing fasciitis, a rarely fatal but rapidly progressing disease, is less recognized in neonates. Polymicrobial infections are the primary culprits. As per the literature and a specific case, common clinical indications include erythema, fever, swelling, lethargy, and irritability. Diagnosis is primarily clinical, and treatment necessitates immediate surgical exploration and antimicrobial therapy.image
