    Abstract Background: Necrotising fasciitis is an aggressive life-threatening infective process rarely making an appearance in the head and neck region and its development secondary to parotid abscess is exceptionally rare and scarcely reported in the literature. This case report serves to guide otolaryngologists with respect to its recognition and offers an alternative approach to craniocervical necrotising fasciitis with multiple neck explorations, use of antimicrobial impregnated packing enabling delayed reconstruction with lower morbidity.
    Case description: A 76-year-old female with a body mass index of 36.2 kg/m
    Conclusions: This case report highlights the significance of repeat explorations and the need to give time for tissue healing as it unlocks options for reconstruction and reduce overall patient morbidity. Bismuth iodoform paraffin paste packing is a valuable tool with this case demonstrating its use an antiseptic and haemostatic agent in necrotising fasciitis and its ability to create an atmosphere to enable tissue healing minimising need for large-scale reconstructions. The absence of crepitus should not discourage the treating clinician from suspecting necrotising fasciitis of the neck. To limit successive cases, early prevention through aggressive control of predisposing systemic conditions including diabetes mellitus is needed. Moreover, when aggressive infections arise, the clinician should investigate for contributing systemic conditions.

    Abstract Introduction: Case reports have specific relevance within the surgical literature. The Case Report Guidelines (CARE) were developed in 2013 to provide a framework to support accuracy in the publication of case reports. As such, they have been adopted by multiple journals. However, they are not tailored to surgery. The objective of this research is to conduct a Delphi consensus exercise amongst experienced case report reviewers and editors to develop the Surgical CAse REport (SCARE) Guidelines.
    Methods and analysis: The CARE statement will be used as the basis for this Delphi consensus exercise. The Delphi questionnaire will be administered via SurveyMonkey and conducted using standard Delphi Methodology. Surgeons and others with significant experience in reviewing case reports will be invited to participate. There is no pre-determined number of Delphi rounds, although the expectation is that at least three will be needed. Initially, interested parties will be invited to contribute further items for consideration. Then, in each subsequent round, the participants will rate the importance of reporting each outcome on a nine-point Likert scale as proposed by the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) working group. This process will also be used to agree standard definitions for the outcomes.
    Dissemination: This work will be disseminated through publication and will be presented at national and international meetings. The findings will be disseminated to interested parties, and journals will be encouraged to endorse the reporting guideline.

    Abstract Introduction: Case series have been a long held tradition within the surgical literature and are still frequently published. Reporting guidelines can improve transparency and reporting quality. No guideline exists for reporting case series, and our recent systematic review highlights the fact that key data are being missed from such reports. Our objective was to develop reporting guidelines for surgical case series.
    Methods: A Delphi consensus exercise was conducted to determine items to include in the reporting guideline. Items included those identified from a previous systematic review on case series and those included in the SCARE Guidelines for case reports. The Delphi questionnaire was administered via Google Forms and conducted using standard Delphi methodology. Surgeons and others with expertise in the reporting of case series were invited to participate. In round one, participants voted to define case series and also what elements should be included in them. In round two, participants voted on what items to include in the PROCESS guideline using a nine-point Likert scale to assess agreement as proposed by the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) working group.
    Results: In round one, there was a 49% (29/59) response rate. Following adjustment of the guideline with incorporation of recommended changes, round two commenced and there was an 81% (48/59) response rate. All but one of the items were approved by the participants and Likert scores 7-9 were awarded by >70% of respondents. The final guideline consists of an eight item checklist.
    Conclusion: We present the PROCESS Guideline, consisting of an eight item checklist that will improve the reporting quality of surgical case series. We encourage authors, reviewers, editors, journals, publishers and the wider surgical and scholarly community to adopt these.
