chloramphenicol and Fasciitis

chloramphenicol has been researched along with Fasciitis in 2 studies

Amphenicol: Chloramphenicol and its derivatives.

Fasciitis: Inflammation of the fascia. There are three major types: 1, Eosinophilic fasciitis, an inflammatory reaction with eosinophilia, producing hard thickened skin with an orange-peel configuration suggestive of scleroderma and considered by some a variant of scleroderma; 2, Necrotizing fasciitis (FASCIITIS, NECROTIZING), a serious fulminating infection (usually by a beta hemolytic streptococcus) causing extensive necrosis of superficial fascia; 3, Nodular/Pseudosarcomatous /Proliferative fasciitis, characterized by a rapid growth of fibroblasts with mononuclear inflammatory cells and proliferating capillaries in soft tissue, often the forearm; it is not malignant but is sometimes mistaken for fibrosarcoma.

"Necrotizing fasciitis is a soft-tissue infection, usually polymicrobial, that causes necrosis of fascia and subcutaneous tissue while sparing skin and muscle."1.28Cervical necrotizing fasciitis: an uncommon sequela to dental infection. ( Kunpittaya, S; Moss, RM; Sorasuchart, A, 1990)
"Necrotising fasciitis of the genitalia still carries a high risk of mortality and morbidity, frequently necessitating long periods of hospitalisation and repeated surgical procedures."1.27Fournier's gangrene: necrotising fasciitis of the male genitalia.
