BACKGROUND Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) of the orbit is a rare and deadly condition
that requires prompt surgical and medical management to decrease morbidity and
mortality. CASE REPORT Here we present an interesting case of an individual who
developed fulminant NF of the left orbit requiring emergent surgical
intervention, antibiotics, and subsequent hyperbaric oxygen therapy in an attempt
to save the eye. CONCLUSIONS With an early and aggressive multifaceted approach
using antibiotics, surgery, and hyperbaric oxygen it may be possible to preserve
eye structure and function. Without treatment NF is a rapidly progressive
condition and can result in significant morbidity.
