Abstract
A case of necrotizing fasciitis with full-thickness loss of the entire abdominal wall is reported after an uncomplicated sterilization by bilateral partial salpingectomy through a minilaparotomy incision in a healthy young patient. Salvage was accomplished by early wide surgical debridement and multiple reconstructive procedures.
