Serial irrigation and debridement with the use of Kerecis in the treatment of necrotizing fasciitis: A case report

This case demonstrates the importance of early diagnosis of necrotizing fasciitis, as well as the utility of fish xenografts in wound coverage once a healthy tissue environment is established. These xenografts are used for many types of wounds, however there is a paucity in the literature supporting their use in necrotizing soft tissue infections. The properties of these grafts potentiate various aspects of healing and show promising results in the healing of deep soft tissue voids.
