Spinal osteomyelitis must always be considered in the differential diagnosis when spinal symptoms appear. The commonest organisms causing osteomyelitis in these patients are Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella. 25 year old male sickle cell anemia patient admitted to the hospital with complaints of low back pain, bilateral leg pain and difficulty in walking. Multiple vertebral osteomyelitis, paravertebral abscess and epidural abscess were diagnosed in lumbar area. Percutaneous Anterior Abscess Drainage and Posterior Decompression was done. The culture was methicillin sensitive Staphylococcus aureus. The patient responded well to surgery and 6 month antibiotic treatment, without the need of re surgical treatment.

Özet

Orak hücreli anemide vertebra osteomiyeliti spinal bulguları olan hastalarda gelişebilecek bir komplikasyon olup, en sık stafilokokus aureus ve salmonella enfeksiyonları görülmektedir. 25 yaşında erkek orak hücreli anemi mevcut olan hasta bel ve her iki bacak ağrısı, halsizlik, gün geçtikçe artmakta olan yürüme güçlüğü nedeniyle başvurdu. Lomber bölgede multipl vertebra osteomiyeliti, paravertebral apse ve epidural bölgede apse tespit edildi. Hastaya perkütan ultrasonografi eşliğinde anterior apse drenajı ve posterior yolla epidural apse drenajı ve dekompresyon uygulandı. Kültüründe metisiline duyarlı stafilokokus aureus üredi. Hastaya uygulanan cerrahi tedavi ve 6 aylık antibiyotik tedavisi ile başka bir cerrahi girişim gerektirmeden, iyi sonuç alındı.
