摘要
Necrotizing fasciitis is a highly morbid soft tissue infection that rarely involves the upper torso. An extremely unusual case of necrotizing fasciitis of the chest wall is reported, including the method by which an open thoracic cage was managed. This represents the second reported case of a patient surviving necrotizing fasciitis of the chest wall requiring rib resection and chest wall reconstruction.
