ABSTRACT
Necrotizing fasciitis is a rapidly progressive infectious
entity that affects the subcutaneous fascia, causing
necrosis and a systemic inflammatory response, with
septic shock or even death. There are risk factors
for this to occur within them, immunocompromise,
age, underlying pathologies, etc. It is a medical-surgical
emergency which is potentially fatal because
the infectious source must be removed by aggressive
debridement or even amputation if necessary and
broad-spectrum antimicrobials must be administered
immediately and when everything is done within the
first 6 hours of hospital admission can significantly
improve prognosis. This is an updated review of this
entity, it highlights classification scores, types and
forms of invasion of bacteria and its timely approach.
