Abstract

Pyomyositis, which is an uncommon pyogenic infection of skeletal muscle, is a rare, but potentially serious disease in children. Pyomyositis can be easily confused with more benign conditions, thus serious complications including compartment syndrome, contiguous osteomyelitis, extension into and destruction of an adjacent joint, sepsis and death may occur. Early diagnosis established with magnetic resonance imaging or computed tomography, prompt drainage of the abscess, microbiological studies and appropriate intravenous antibiotic treatment prevent complications and provide successful management of pyomyositis in children. In this paper, we present a case with gluteal pyomyositis who was initially misdiagnosed as transient synovitis and suffered from contiguous osteomyelitis due to delay in diagnosis.

Özet

İskelet kasının sık rastlanmayan piyojenik enfeksiyonu olan piyomiyozit, çocuklarda nadir görülen, fakat ciddi seyredebilen bir hastalıktır. Piyomiyozit benign hastalıklarla kolaylıkla karıştırılabileceği için, kompartman sendromu, komşu eklemde osteomiyelit, bitişik eklemin ekstansiyonu ve yıkımı, sepsis ve ölüme yol açabilir. Manyetik rezonans görüntüleme veya bilgisayarlı tomografi ile konulan erken tanı, apsenin hızlı drenajı, mikrobiyolojik çalışmalar ve uygun intravenöz antibiyotik tedavisi ile çocuklarda komplikasyonlar önlenebilir ve piyomiyozit başarılı bir şekilde tedavi edilebilir. Bu yazıda, ilk olarak geçici sinovit yanlış tanısı konan ve tanıda gecikme yaşandığı için komşu eklemde osteomiyelit gelişen, bir gluteal piyomiyozit olgusu sunuldu.
