Chronic haematogenous osteomyelitis in children: an unsolved problem

H Wynn Jones et al. J Bone Joint Surg Br. 2011 Aug.

Abstract

From a global point of view, chronic haematogenous osteomyelitis in children remains a major cause of musculoskeletal morbidity. We have reviewed the literature with the aim of estimating the scale of the problem and summarising the existing research, including that from our institution. We have highlighted areas where well-conducted research might improve our understanding of this condition and its treatment.
