OSTEOMYELITIS • Infection of bone marrow and and adjacent bone Several classifications
The duration of the disease • Acute osteomyelitis • Subacute osteomyelitis • Chronic osteomyelitis
The way of occurence 1 - Hematogenous osteomyelitis 2 – Osteomyelitis secondary to direct transmission - Any vascular disease may/not associate 3 - Chronic osteomyelitis (necrotic bone)
Anatomical classification • Stage 1: medullary osteomyelitis • Stage 2: superficial osteomyelitis • Stage 3: localized osteomyelitis • Stage 4: diffuse osteomyelitis
SYSTEMICAND LOCAL FACTORS Systemic Local MalnutritionChronic lymphedema Renal, hepatic failure Venous failure Diabetes mellitus Vascular insufficiency Chronic hipoxia Arteritis Alcohol and/or tobacco use Tissue scar Malignant disordersRadiation fibrosis Advanced age Neuropathy Immune suppression HIV/AIDS
ETIOLOGY • Babies (<1 year) • Group B streptococci • S. aureus • E. coli • Children(1 - 16 years) • S. aureus • S. pyogenes • H. influenzae • Adult(> 16 years) • S. epidermidis • S. aureus • P. aeruginosa
EPIDEMIOLOGY • Acute hematogenous osteomyelitis: a disorder of childhood period • A trend to increase: traffic accidents, increasing rates of orthopedic interventions. • Adults– Vertebtal osteomyelitis (Spondylodiscitis)
CLINICAL FEATURES AcuteHematogenousOsteomyelitis - Systemicdisorder - No structural bone changes - A history of lessthan 10 days - No previousepisodes SubacuteHemotogenousOsteomyelitis -Systemicdisorder (not as severe as theacute form) -Bone changes -A history of morethan 10 days - No previousepisodes Chronicosteomyelitis -Systemicdisordermay/not associate -Bone changes -There is/arepreviousepisode(s).
Clinical Features • Depends on the way of development (hematogenous, direct, from adjacent tissues), patient's characteristics and the period of the disorder • Hematogenous osteomyelitis • fever, fatigue, restlessness • Tenderness, pain, and edema on the affected site • Decreased mobility of the affected extremity • Muscle spasms
From adjacent tissue; pain, redness, swellings, a draining sinus from the site of trauma, wound, or operation • Dorsal/back pain in vertebral osteomyelitis .
RADIOLOGICAL FINDINGS Plain X-ray; • Diagnosis and the course of the disease • Increase in density of the surrounding soft tissues (first 10 days) • Periostal reaction (after 10 days) • Bone loss in subacute period
Bone scan • For early diagnosis
Computed tomography Sentitive for soft tissue inflammation as well. Diagnosis and follow-up of the therapy
Magnetic Resonance • Soft tissue and bone marrow inflammation • Early diagnosis
Differential Diagnosis • Rheumatic fever • Cellulitis • Ewing’s sacroma • Septic arthritis • Osteosarcoma • Eosinophilic granuloma • Thrombophlebitis
Vertebral Osteomyelitis • Frequent etiology: • S. aureus, • M. tuberculosis, • Brucella • Gram-negative bacilli (Gastrointestinal or urinary system) • Postoperative • Pain and disability • May be indolent and fever may not be seen
Tx • Antibiotics • Surgery • Underlying disorder
Antibiotics Meticilin-sensitive Staph. → Cefazolin or Sulbactam/ampicillin Meticilin-resistant Staph →Vancomycin or teicoplanin Brucella → Rifampin+doxycycline Tuberculosis → INH+RIF+PZA+EMB
Children: Acute hematogenous Adult: Chronic (hematogenous---from adjacent tissues…
