Primarily affecting obstetric patients following childbirth, cesarean delivery, or uterine instrumentation and pregnancy termination, it is caused by anaerobic spore-forming bacilli such as *Clostridium perfringens* or *Clostridium sordellii*

Pathophysiologically, the condition is driven by potent clostridial exotoxins that cause rapid tissue destruction, often leading to uterine myonecrosis, gas formation within tissues, and profound systemic toxicity Clinical hallmarks include high fever, severe pelvic pain, foul-smelling or watery lochia, and marked uterine tenderness, which can rapidly deteriorate into intravascular hemolysis, capillary leak, and fulminant septic shock
