Hey all, time for another Urology tweetorial on Fournier gangrene (FG). We will briefly cover the history, epidemiology, pathophysiology, and management. Special thanks in advance to my wonderful mentor @RamonVirasoro! #UroSoMe The first documented case of FG is from 800 BC by an Arab physician Avicenna who practiced in Uzbekistan. He identified perineal gangrene as a complication of transperineal bladder stone removals (impressive that they were doing these).
