  • Title: A rare case of Salmonella osteomyelitis in the humerus as a differential diagnosis to a malignant bone tumor.
    Author: Bettin D, Schaphorn G, Blasius S, Becker K, Niemeyer T.
    Journal: Arch Orthop Trauma Surg; 2002 Dec; 122(9-10):544-6. PubMed ID: 12483341.
    Abstract:
    Salmonella osteomyelitis without predisposing factors is seldom seen and thus difficult to diagnose. We report on a 14-year-old healthy boy with Salmonella osteomyelitis which occurred 2 years after trauma. Radical operative debridement is recommended. Intravenous ciprofloxacin has proved to be effective because of good tissue penetration and sensitivity towards Salmonella.
