Abstract
Introduction: Necrotising fasciitis is an uncommon and rapidly progressive soft tissue infection that results in necrosis of the superficial, or deep fascia. The incidence is approximately 3.5-4 cases per 100,000. It most commonly effects the abdomen, groin and lower limbs (after (minor) trauma and surgery). Only 5% of necrotising fasciitis cases affect the head and neck region. As such the exposure to this condition for the majority of Oral & Maxillofacial surgeons is limited. We therefore wish to share our experience of 3 recent cases.
