Bilateral testicular gangrene: does it occur in Fournier's gangrene?
Fournier's gangrene (FG) is an infective necrotizing fascitis of the perineum, genital and perianal area leading to gangrene of the overlying skin and subcutaneous tissue. Testis and epididymis tend to be spared. We report a case of a young male with bilateral gangrene of the testis.
