Abstract
AbstractNecrotizing fasciitis of the head and neck has previously been classified as a homogeneous group. We present two cases of necrotizing fasciitis confined to the neck and demonstrate with a review of the literature that cervical necrotizing fasciitis and craniofacial necrotizing fasciitis are two distinct clinicopathological conditions.
