We present a case study detailing the fatal manifestation of necrotizing fasciitis (NF) attributed to Salmonella enterica spp. enterica Enteritidis (S. Enteritidis) in a 53-year-old female afflicted with diabetes mellitus, pyoderma gangraenosum, and rheumatoid arthritis. A profound genomic analysis of all isolated Salmonella strains by sequencing and a detailed analysis of possible virulence factors was performed.
