Implication

This case series demonstrates the outcomes and surgical strategies for necrotising soft tissue infections, emphasizing critical management.

Key Points

  • This analysis aims to assess the treatment pathways and outcomes for patients with necrotising soft tissue infections.
  • Retrospective analysis of 40 patients treated for NSTI between 2015 and 2024.
  • Evaluation of demographic data, microbiological results, and number of surgical interventions.
  • Assessment of the role of limb amputation and reconstruction techniques in patient outcomes.
  • 35% of patients were referred at an advanced stage due to delays in treatment.
  • Patients underwent an average of 4 surgical interventions.
  • 20% of patients required limb amputation as part of their treatment.
  • 17.5% of patients died during hospitalization.
