 The cervical necrotizing fasciitis(CNF)is a grave infectious disease and easily induces the mediastinitis. Its progress is very severe and mortality is high. We reported a case of an 85-year-old woman suffering from the CNF with mediastinal abscess. She was treated with surgical debridement and drainage in cervical necrotizing fasciitis and mediastinum abscess and intravenous antibiotic agents. Severe dysphagia occurred by post-inflammatory scar formation of the neck but finally healed by rehabilitation. Active treatment with both surgery and medication is crucial for overcoming the life-threatening CNF.
