We present the case of a 75-year-old woman who presented with extensive breast cellulitis, which was thought to be secondary to a deep breast abscess. On admission the patient underwent debridement of the breast and broad-spectrum intravenous antibiotics were administered. However, during hospitalisation she developed sepsis, acute renal failure and required further debridements for the rapidly spreading necrotising fasciitis. Subsequently, a partial mastectomy was performed and the patient made an overall good postoperative recovery.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
