  • Title: Sclerosing Osteomyelitis of Garré: A Clinico-Radiological Correlation.
    Author: Ghazali FR, Samsudin AHZ.
    Journal: Cureus; 2022 Jul; 14(7):e26866. PubMed ID: 35978744.
    Abstract:
    Sclerosing osteomyelitis of Garré is a rare and very specific type of chronic osteomyelitis that mainly affects children and young adults. To date, there is no clear etiology for the disease. Clinical findings and laboratory results are usually unremarkable with commonly negative blood and tissue cultures. Cortical thickening and periosteal reaction are common radiological findings. Biopsy often shows chronic non-specific inflammatory changes. It is a well-described entity in the dental literature, but to the best of our knowledge, there are no distinctive diagnostic criteria for long bones. We report a case of sclerosing osteomyelitis of Garré in a young lady involving the right tibia, for which the diagnosis was made based on clinico-radiological correlation.
