  • Title: [Acute infantile osteomyelitis].
    Author: Graswinckel JD, Marti RK, Besselaar PP.
    Journal: Tijdschr Kindergeneeskd; 1988 Dec; 56(6):253-8. PubMed ID: 3238676.
    Abstract:
    In infants acute haematogenous osteomyelitis presents with few and subtle clinical signs. Only early diagnosis and proper treatment of this orthopedic emergency are able to prevent late deformities. Delay in diagnosis, persistence in apparently not effective conservative therapy and inadequate surgery lead to ugly and severe deformities, of which the corrective treatment is a heavy burden for the child and its parents.
