Aeromonas hydrophila: myofascial necrosis and sepsis
Abstract
An alcoholic patient with ascites was admitted to the intensive care unit for gastrointestinal bleeding. He subsequently developed spontaneous myonecrosis of the extremities culminating in sepsis syndrome. This was a unique, non-traumatic presentation of Aeromonas hydrophila soft tissue injury.
