Fournier’s Gangrene: clinical case review and analysis of risk factors for mortality
This study provides a detailed analysis of the clinical characteristics and risk factors for mortality in Fournier's Gangrene patients. The primary outcome of this study is that a decreased hematocrit is an independent risk factor for predicting mortality in FG patients. These findings offer valuable prognostic insights for clinicians, underscoring the importance of early identification and correction of reduced hematocrit to improve patient outcomes and survival rates.
