Early CT findings of fournier’s gangrene in a healthy male

Early clinical identification of Fournier’s gangrene is imperative to avoid delay in the aggressive surgical debridement, antibiotic therapy, and sometimes hyperbaric oxygen treatments. We report on the early computed tomography findings of a non-gas-forming Fournier’s gangrene in a healthy male to aid urolo- gists, surgeons, and radiologists in the recognition of this rapidly progressive and often fatal infection.
