Fournier's gangrene is a surgical emergency that arises in the perineum and genital area and is characterized as necrotizing fasciitis of the perineum and genital area. It quickly spreads between the fascial planes and causes soft tissue necrosis. Diabetes mellitus is the most prevalent predisposing factor. Early diagnosis and management are critical in the progression of the disease. Surgical debridement and wide-spectrum antibiotic therapy are the first steps in treatment. Despite advancements in diagnosis and treatment procedures, as well as changes in critical care techniques, the disease has a death rate of 16-40%. The research involves comparisons of patients who were operated on for Fournier's gangrene between January 2016 and January 2022, including those who were treated with vacuum assisted closure tecnique vs those who were not. Data on the patients' demographic and clinical features was acquired and analyzed from hospital records. The study involved the involvement of 16 patients. 6 patients (38%) were in Group 1 and 10 patients (62%) were in Group 2. There were 11 men (68 %) and 5 women (32%). Swelling in the wound region was the most prevalent complaint. The most common site of gangrene was the perianal region, and diabetes was the most common predisposing condition. Group 2 had a significantly shorter hospital stay (p=0.02). Between groups, there was no statistically significant difference in mortality or other parameters. The main advantages of VAC therapy are that it requires fewer dressings, causes less pain, and reduces the risk of contamination. The advantages of the traditional wet dressing include its ease of use and low cost, as well as the fact that VAC therapy promotes faster wound healing and shorter hospital stays.
