Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a soft-tissue infection that is rare but rapidly progressive with incidence estimated to be 4.0 to 15.5 cases per 100,000 population. 1 NF is characterized by a progressive destruction of the muscle fascia and overlying subcutaneous fat. Due to a high risk of mortality, prompt diagnosis of signs and symptoms and treatment are essential to avoid an adverse patient care pathway including sepsis, amputation, and death. 2 Monomicrobial NF is most commonly associated with Gram-positive organisms such as group A Streptococcus. 1 Pyrogenic toxics produced by this germ can induced streptococcal toxic shock syndrome associated with worse prognosis particularly in elderly population. 3 In this report, we present a case of lower-extremity NF caused by Streptococcus pyogenes that was successfully treated without interval surgical intervention.
