case_images: A computerized tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen and pelvis revealed significant air, fluid, and inflammation around the rectum and scrotum tracking proximally through the pelvis and into the left retroperitoneum with inflammation just below the left kidney (Figures 1 and 2) which prompted a surgical consultation.

case_images: The anal sphincter complex required complete excision secondary to necrosis which then necessitated a proximal colonic diversion for control of his fecal incontinence (Figure 5).

case_images: After approximately six weeks convalescing, there was sufficient granulation tissue on the perineum and testicles, and he underwent one-to-one meshed split-thickness skin grafting for cutaneous coverage and creation of a neoscrotum for the testicles (Figure 6).
