A de novo case of vulvar synergistic necrotizing fasciitis.

Necrotizing fasciitis is an uncommon but potentially lethal soft tissue infection. Reports of this entity in the obstetric patient exist. We present a case of necrotizing fasciitis arising de novo in the vulva. Early diagnosis and radical surgical debridement are the hallmarks of successful treatment.
