Abstract

Craniocervical necrotising fasciitis (CCNF) is an aggressive and potentially fatal infection associated with high morbidity and mortality if early intervention is not implemented. Patients are often unwell at presentation, the clinical picture is often unclear thus presenting with diagnostic difficulty.We report a case of CCNF presenting at an advanced stage and discuss the condition including its management and associated complications.
