Necrotizing fasciitis following BCG vaccination
Abstract
We report a newborn with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus mediated necrotizing fasciitis after Bacilli-Calmette-Guerin vaccination. Radical debridement of the affected area coupled with twice daily surgical honey dressing and intravenous vancomycin and clindamycin resulted in satisfactory healing.
