Abstract
We present a case of life-threatening necrotising fasciitis of the neck with acute pharyngeal perforation following a parapharyngeal abscess caused by tonsillitis. The joint occurrence of cervical necrotising fasciitis and acute pharyngeal perforation has not been previously reported. A new way of reconstructing the pharyngeal defect using an islanded submental perforator flap is presented.
