To present a case of fulminant sepsis caused by Clostridium perfringens of urological origin. ⋯ Sepsis is a possible complication of infection from Clostridium perfringens. It is more frequent in immune-depressed patients and carries a high mortality despite medical and surgical treatment. Although it is not the most frequent, the genitourinary tract is a known portal of entry that should not be forgotten as in the case described herein.
