Figure 1 (A) A 67-year-old woman after a ventral hernia repair with mesh (arrow). Axial noncontrast computed tomography (CT), demonstrating a large fluid collection with gas in the anterior abdominal wall typical of infection. (B) A 28-year-old man with sacral decubitus ulcer. Contrast-enhanced axial CT, demonstrating a large amount of gas within the gluteus muscles and subcutaneous inflammatory stranding typical for necrotizing fasciitis.

Figure 9 A 53-year-old man with chronic myelogenous leukaemia. Axial contrast-enhanced computed tomography, demonstrating a hyperdense subcutaneous chloroma (arrow), an unusual appearance because most chloromas are hypodense to muscle.
