Abstract

Diabetes mellitus increases the risk of infection, including Fournier’s gangrene. Fournier’s gangrene (FG) is rare, with an average incidence of 1.6 cases per 100,000 population per year. We report a case of a 60-year-old presented with the history of wounds of the buttocks, penis, and scrotum. The patient had a history of uncontrolled diabetes mellitus for 3 years. There were perianal abscesses and necrotic tissue on the penis and scrotum. Radiological evaluation in the patient showed the presence of gas-forming in the scrotal area. Therefore, incision and drainage procedures with necrotomy and debridement were performed, together with antibiotics and blood glucose regulation, followed by the closure of the defect with skin graft and flap use. The patient was discharged with an improved clinical condition.
