| Abstract: | Aeromonas species can cause gastroenteritis, soft tissue infections, hepatobiliary tract and other infections. While most reported soft tissue infections have been attributed to Aeromonas hydrophila, we report a case of necrotizing fasciitis caused by Aeromonas veronii biovar sobria. Prompt and accurate diagnosis cum treatment could help save children with Aeromonas soft tissue infections from developing a bacteremia with extended morbidity and mortality. |
