In 1883 Fournier, a French venereologist, described 5 patients with unexplained fulminating gangrene of the male genitalia. Fournier emphasized 3 characteristics 1) the abrupt onset in a young, healthy male subjects, 2) the rapid progression to gangrene and 3) the absence of a discernible cause. As currently used by many authors, Fournier's gangrene describes a widely destructive, gangrenous process of the genitalia, with little regard for Fournier's original tenets of patient's age or definable etiology. Early identification and prompt initiation of medical and surgical therapy is imperative. We report two cases of Fournier's gangrene with brief review of the literatures.

Fournier's gangrene is a life-threatening disorder characterized by necrotizing fasciitis of the perineal region. Because delay in diagnosis and treatment of this condition can be fatal, it is important not to overlook the symptoms. We present an unusual case of Fournier's gangrene after excision of a thrombosed hemorrhoid. A previously healthy 74-year-old female patient developed Fournier's gangrene after a hemorrhoidectomy. In spite of aggressive treatment, she eventually died. Here, we emphasize early recognition and prompt treatment of this condition, reporting an unexpected disastrous complication of a hemorrhoidectomy.

Fournier gangrene is a fulminant infection of the genitalia, perineum, or abdominal wall. It is a life threatening progressive disease that requires aggressive surgical therapy and broad spectrum antibiotic treatment. We present one case of Fournier gangrene after penile methamphetamine injection.

Genitourinary gangrene is an uncommon, potentially lethal disorder characterized by the abrupt onset of a rapidly progressive necrotizing soft tissue infection caused by the synergistic action of various organisms that spread along fascial planes, causing subfascial soft tissue necrosis and destruction. Many factors, debilitating condition such as carcinoma, diabetes and alcoholism, contribute to the development and perpetuate the course of Fournier's gangrene. In our two cases , predisposing causes were as follow ; chronic liver disease, diabetes mellitus, chronic alcoholism, perianal abscess. The patients were hemodynamically unstable and extensive necrosis was noted. After aggressive debridement of the wound and triple antibiotic therapy, general condition became improved and then we performed split thickness skin grafts and the results of reconstructive surgery were satisfactory.
