Abstract (English):
Necrotizing soft tissue infection is a potentially dangerous infection often resulting in disability and mortality. Polymorphism of clinical symptoms often makes it difficult to diagnose necrotizing soft tissue infection in the early stages of the disease. The treatment tactics in patients with necrotizing soft tissue infection shall be active and include early surgical intervention and antibiotic therapy. Multidisciplinary approach is a key to successful treatment of the patients with this pathology.

Keywords:
