Abstract

Acute hematogenous and subacute osteomyelitis are frequently seen in childhood. Subacute patellar osteomyelitis is rarely seen and therefore its early diagnosis may be difficult due to the rarity of this infection with the absence of systemic signs and symptoms. This report aims to present a case of patellar osteomyelitis in an eight-year-old boy with pain and swelling in the right knee. Infection was evacuated by surgery and the space was filled with autologous bone graft. Long term follow-up revealed a complete recovery of the patient with normal range of knee motion.

Özet

Akut hematojen ve subakut osteomiyelite çocukluk yaş grubunda daha sık rastlanmaktadır. Patellanın subakut osteomiyeliti ise nadir olarak görülmekte, erken teşhis hem nadir rastlanmasından hem de sistemik belirti ve semptomların yokluğundan dolayı zor olabilmektedir. Bu yazı sağ dizinde ağrı ve şişlik yakınmaları olan sekiz yaşında bir erkek çocukta tespit edilen subakut patella osteomiyelitini sunmayı amaçlamaktadır. Enfeksiyon cerrahi olarak boşaltıldı ve boşluk otolog kemik grefti ile dolduruldu. Uzun dönem takibi dizde normal hareket ile beraber tam bir iyileşmeyi gösterdi.
