  2. Osteomyelitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osteomyelitis

    Acute osteomyelitis almost invariably occurs in children who are otherwise healthy, because of rich blood supply to the growing bones. When adults are affected, it may be because of compromised host resistance due to debilitation, intravenous drug abuse, infectious root-canaled teeth, or other disease or drugs (e.g., immunosuppressive therapy).

  3. Vertebral osteomyelitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertebral_osteomyelitis

    Vertebral osteomyelitis often attacks two vertebrae and the corresponding intervertebral disk, causing narrowing of the disc space between the vertebrae. [6] The prognosis for the disease is dependent on where the infection is concentrated in the spine, the time between initial onset and treatment, and what approach is used to treat the disease.

  4. Condensing osteitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensing_osteitis

    Condensing osteitis, also known as focal sclerosing osteomyelitis, is a rare periapical inflammatory condition characterized by the formation of sclerotic bone near the roots of premolars and molars. This condition arises as a response to dental infections, such as periapical pulp inflammation or low-intensity trauma.

    This therapy is used in horses for conditions such as osteomyelitis secondary to laminitis, sub-solar abscesses leading to osteomyelitis, post-surgical treatment of street-nail procedure for puncture wounds infecting the navicular bursa, canker, non-healing ulcers on the frog, and post-surgical site cleaning for keratoma removal.

  7. Brodie abscess - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brodie_abscess

    Surgery is the main treatment, often combined with antibiotics. The prognosis is generally favorable, with minimal risk of lasting disability or recurrence. Brodie abscess is responsible for 2.5%-42% of primary bone infections. It is named after Sir Benjamin Collins Brodie, 1st Baronet, who initially described the condition in the 1830s.

  8. Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_recurrent_multi...

    Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is a rare condition (1:1,000,000), in which the bones have lesions, inflammation, and pain. It is called multifocal because it can appear in different parts of the body, primarily bones, and osteomyelitis because it is very similar to that disease, although CRMO appears to be without any infection .

  9. Septic arthritis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septic_arthritis

    The differential diagnosis of septic arthritis is broad and challenging. First, it has to be differentiated from acute hematogenous osteomyelitis. This is because the treatment lines of both conditions are not identical. Noteworthy, septic arthritis and acute hematogenous osteomyelitis can co-occur.
