Although complications of necrotizing soft tissue infections (NSTIs) such as Fournier Gangrene (FG) are rare, they are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Laboratory and radiological studies may aid in the evaluation of NSTI; however, focus should remain on physical examination and prompt surgical consultation, as these infections can spread rapidly with significant increases in mortality with delayed management. We present the case of a 37-year-old male soldier with reported history of two distant left inguinal hernia repairs, complaining of increasing buttock pain despite outpatient antibiotic therapy for perineal cellulitis from his primary clinician. Despite normal vital signs and low risk from established NSTI calculator scores, examination revealed crepitus and severe tenderness extending from the buttock through the perineum and scrotum characteristic of FG. Preoperative computed tomography found additional spread of subcutaneous air from these areas into the lower abdomen, likely facilitated by the previously repaired left inguinal hernia. Surgical management necessitated debridement, multiple washouts, and ileostomy. Follow-up evaluations revealed previously undiagnosed Crohn\u2019s disease with fistula-in-ano as the inciting factor.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/milmed\/usab110","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,20]],"date-time":"2021-03-20T11:14:39Z","timestamp":1616238879000},"page":"e426-e429","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Abdominal
