ABSTRACT

Osteomyelitis is an inflammatory process caused by microorganisms and usually accompanied by bone destruction. The process may be limited to one portion of the bone or spread to several areas such as the bone marrow, periosteum or cortex. osteomyelitis in children is primarily a clinical diagnosis based on the rapid onset and localization of symptoms. Systemic symptoms such as fever, lethargy, and irritability may be present. A high index of clinical suspicion is required, along with recognition of clinical symptoms and supportive laboratory and imaging studies.
