Fournier's gangrene: a report of 5 cases.
A report of 5 cases of infective gangrene of the genitalia and adjacent tissues occuring within a 1 1/4-year period is presented. Of these, 4 cases occurred within 5 months. All the patients were adult males. During the same period no similar pathology was observed in any female or child. Such a large number of cases occuring in so short a time is intriguing but we are unable to explain it. The treatment in all cases was with general supportive drugs, blood transfusion when needed and specific antibiotics. Local excision of the dead tissues and dressing with hydrogen peroxide and eusol gave satisfactory results.
