Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a life-threatening disease with high mortality and rapidly progressive clinical manifestations. Early detection and surgical management coupled with antibiotic treatment are crucial for the survival, and the patient survival is heavily dependent on clinical decisions. However, it is not widely known that NF does not always follow a typical clinical course, and there have been no case reports of NF following an atypical clinical course. Although the course of the disease depends on the individual patient, it remains a challenge for physicians to determine the precise timing when patients are most likely to survive multiple surgical interventions. We encountered a challenging case presenting with an atypical clinical course. We herein report a 31 year-old man who followed a deteriorating biphasic-like clinical course and presented with extensive NF and streptococcal toxic shock syndrome due to Group A Streptococcus. This case serves to inform physicians of the existence of NF with an atypical and deteriorating biphasic-like clinical course, emphasizing the need for a careful evaluation of the patient condition.
