Sliwinski et al. (2014) reported the case of Fournier's gangrene in a 24-year-old man who had an elective non-therapeutic [[Adolescent_and_adult_circumcision| circumcision]] for “prophylactic hygiene reasons”. There was extensive debridement of infected tissue, which resulted in deficit of skin which was resolved by the use of a pedicle flap from the anterior abdominal wall, after which the patient recovered.<ref>{{REFjournal | |||
