Sponsor's own description

Although it is rarely observed, necrotizing fasciitis progresses with high mortality and serious complications. Fournier's gangrene is a specific form of necrotizing fasciitis. In laboratory tests, leukocytosis or leukopenia, anemia, lymphopenia can be observed. Perianal abscess is a surgical emergency that is observed much more frequently than necrotizing fasciitis. Although Fournier's gangrene has many different etiologies, it rarely occurs due to the progression of perianal abscess, and although it is difficult to distinguish between these two diseases at diagnosis, the two diseases manifest themselves as different entities. In this study, blood cytokine levels will be evaluated in patients with Fournier's gangrene and perianal abscess, and the role of blood cytokine levels in the differential diagnosis of these two diseases will be investigated.
