    Abstract:
    Fournier's gangrene represents an acute severe necrotizing inflammatory process affecting the scrotum and penis. We report the case of a patient with Fournier's gangrene as the presenting sign of HIV infection. The process began with balanitis and rapidly destroyed the penis. Aggressive medical and surgical management proved successful.
