Journal Title: Journal of Bone and Joint Diseases - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
The muscles and bone related infections are remains common cause of morbidity. In children, osteomyelitis is primarily hematogenous in origin and acute in nature. Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus is the most common organism, but incidence of methicillin resistant S. aureus in the community is continuously rising. Owing to the emergence of community-associated methicillin-resistant S. aureus the overall management process must have to advance. The functional outcomes may become poor if there is poor quality of management. That is why management includes careful consideration about pathogenesis, microbiology, diagnostic options, surgical and medical treatment of osteomyelitis.
