摘要
The case of an 82-year-old woman with bilateral necrotizing fasciitis and unilateral orbital involvement is presented. A mixed infection consisting ofStreptococcus pyogenes,Staphylococcus aureus, andAspergillus fumigatuscould be verified. The latter was detected by molecular pathological investigations. Treatment consisted of repeated surgical debridement in combination with systemic broad-spectrum antibiotic and antimycotic treatment. Furthermore, the patient received low-dose systemic corticosteroids. After remission of acute inflammation, the healing process by secondary intention was uneventful.
