Abstract
|
|
|
Emphysematous gangrene of the lower extremity in a diabetic patient due to minor trauma is being presented. The gas originating from the extremity extended along the fascial planes into the pelvic cavity, scrotal region, retroperitoneal space,
and
abdominal wall. CT demonstrated the pathways of upward extension of emphysematous gangrene. Anatomic pathways of the spread of the disease are insertions of the iliopsoas, piriformis and obturator internus muscles, and their fascial investments,
and the
endopelvic fascia. Anatomic pathways on CT and the role of CT are discussed.
