Abstract

Circumcision is generally a safe procedure with rare serious adverse events. We report the case of a 7-month-old male who developed necrotizing soft tissue infection following circumcision of his buried penis. A high index of suspicion must be present to diagnose necrotizing fasciitis, and treatment involves early, aggressive debridement, and broad spectrum antibiotics.
