OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of reclassified new type III monomicrobial gram-negative necrotizing fasciitis (NF) and the microbial factors associated with an increased risk of mortality.
METHODS: This study included 235 NF cases treated at National Taiwan University Hospital. We compared the mortality risk of NF caused by different causal microorganisms and examined the bacterial virulence genes profile and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern associated with an increase in mortality risk.
RESULTS: Type III NF (n = 68) had a mortality risk two-fold higher than type I (polymicrobial, n = 64) or type II (monomicrobial gram-positive, n = 79) NF (42.6% vs 23.4% or 19.0%, P = 0.019 and 0.002, respectively). Mortality differed by causal microorganism (Escherichia coli [61.5%], Klebsiella pneumoniae [40.0%], Aeromonas hydrophila [37.5%], Vibrio vulnificus [25.0%], polymicrobial [23.4%], group A streptococci [16.7%], and Staphylococcus aureus [16.2%], in decreasing rank, P <0.001). Type III NF caused by E. coli, identified as extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC) via virulence gene analyses, was associated with a particularly high mortality risk (adjusted odds ratio: 6.51, P = 0.003) after adjusting for age and comorbidities. Some (38.5%/7.7%) of the E. coli strains were non-susceptible to third/fourth-generation cephalosporins but remained susceptible to carbapenems.
CONCLUSION: Type III NF, especially cases caused by E. coli or K. pneumoniae, are associated with a comparatively higher mortality risk than type I or type II NF. Wound gram stain-based rapid diagnosis of type III NF may inform empirical antimicrobial therapy to include a carbapenem.
