We report here a case of necrotizing fasciitis occurred because of intravenous misuse of morphine sulfate (Skénan (®)). Several factors are pertinent: the type of infection, rare but severe, the double localization of the necrotizing fasciitis, complicated by sepsis, the patient profile (HIV-infected) and the injected substance (opiate).
