Abstract

The authors present the results of a retrospective study over a 10-year period, evaluating the results of early component separation and primary wound closure (CSC) in patients with necrotizing soft tissue infection of the genitalia (NSTIG). Of the 65 patients managed by urology, 36 healed by secondary intention and 29 underwent CSC, 20 having primary closure and 9 undergoing split thickness skin grafting (STSG). The authors’ preference was to close the defects with or without STSG on the same admission.
