  • Title: ["Tropical" pyomyositis in childhood].
    Author: Reutter-Simon G, Schwarzer U, Reither M.
    Journal: Monatsschr Kinderheilkd; 1993 Apr; 141(4):293-6. PubMed ID: 8487789.
    Abstract:
    We report on a 14 year old boy, who developed bacterial pyomyositis (Staphylococcus aureus) in his left thigh. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging were very helpful for the differential diagnosis and follow-up of this infection which in large skeletal muscles frequently is associated with abscess formation. Treatment consisted of antibiotics and surgical drainage.
