Necrotizing fasciitis is a rare, severe, life-threatening soft tissue infection. Rapid progression and systemic illness are recognized features of the condition in which a high index of suspicion is essential to prompt early diagnosis and ensure a favourable outcome. Management necessitates immediate and aggressive surgical and antimicrobial treatment. This case report describes the rare presentation of facial necrotizing fasciitis with orbital involvement that required initial and subsequent widespread surgical resection within the first 24 h of admission, including unilateral enucleation of infected orbital contents.
