title: Necrotising fasciitis following inguinal hernia repair.
abstract: We report a case of necrotising fasciitis following inguinal hernia repair. It is rare for clean operations such as hernia repair to be associated with infection, and even rarer for them to be associated with necrotising fasciitis, with only a few reports in the literature.
