Dr Prashanth Mohan B H

Abstract :

Chronic osteomyelitis can be defined as an infective inflammation of bone. In a developing country like ours it’s a common problem. Open fractures, surgical interferences, nearby sepsis, penetrating injuries and haematogenous spread are some of the common causes. This is quiet common in younger children and in majority of time it is due to haematogenous spread of bacteria. Bone involvement is common because of rich blood supply of growing skeleton in children. The aim of this study is to evaluate epidemiology, pattern of bacteriological agent and site of bone involvement in cases of chronic osteomyelitis.
