Case: Limb salvage by HydroClean® application

Necrosis Fasciitis on the lower left leg admitted after 2 weeks coming from Africa, in a septic condition.

The tibial bone was completely exposed and at high risk of above the knee amputation treated successfully by HydroClean® (HC) at Saint George Hospital University Medical Center in Lebanon.
