Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
Fournier’s gangrene is relatively uncommon condition, especially in female patients. The literature suggests that Fournier’s gangrene in women may arise from vulvar or Bartholin’s gland abscesses or may result from hysterectomy or episiotomy. Here, we present a diabetic female patient with Fournier’s gangrene without any history of abscesses, hysterectomy or episiotomy.
