KUKUL, Musa G et al. A fatal Clostridium perfringens infection with hemolysis after chemotherapy in an adolescent. Arch. argent. pediatr. [online]. 2017, vol.115, n.2, pp.e92-e95. ISSN 0325-0075. http://dx.doi.org/10.5546/aap.2017.e92.
Gas gangrene, clostridial myonecrosis, is one of the most serious infectious diseases, characterized by rapidly progressive destruction of deep soft tissues and production of gas within the tissues. We presented a case of fatal spontaneous gas gangrene due to Clostridium perfringens in a patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia during remission induction chemotherapy phase.
