摘要

We report an uncommon odontogenic actinomycotic cervicothoracic Nectrotizing Fasciitis (NF), treated with tracheostomy, immediate surgical debridement and antibiotics. Red flags for early identification, LRINEC scoring for prognostication, surgical debridement with aerobic & anaerobic culture specific antibiotics to improve survival in this life-threatening cervicothoracic NF in a young diabetic is discussed.
