Resumen
Objetivo: describir la prevalencia y factores asociados al síndrome de Fournier en niños. Metodo: Se trata de una revisión integradora de la literatura realizada en seis etapas: elaboración de la pregunta de investigación; búsqueda y muestreo de literatura; definición de información a extraer de estudios seleccionados; categorización de estudios; análisis de muestras; Presentación de resultados. La recolección de datos se realizó en las bases de datos Publisher Medline (PubMed), Scientific Electronic Library Online (Scielo) y Google Scholar. Resultados: Los resultados mostraron que la prevalencia del síndrome de Fournier en niños no está claramente descrita en la literatura y los factores asociados fueron el sexo femenino, causas anorrectales, hospitalización tardía, presencia de condiciones debilitantes como insuficiencia renal y disfunción hepática, además de pruebas de laboratorio. parámetros como hiperglucemia, hipocalcemia, anemia, leucocitosis y trombocitopenia, niveles bajos de hematocrito, calcio, albúmina y colesterol, y niveles altos de BUN y fosfatasa alcalina. Consideraciones Finales: El síndrome de Fournier en niños es una condición grave importante y se sugiere desarrollar más estudios para evaluar la situación como fisiopatología, mecanismos subyacentes, prevalencia y factores asociados.
