Acute osteomyelitis of the patella in a child (case report)
Abstract
Acute osteomyelitis of the patella is rarely seen in pediatric population compared to adults. False or delayed diagnosis is possible because of the mild onset of symptoms at presentation. Here we present a six year old boy with acute osteomyelitis of the patella. The pathologic process was very well documented by plain radiographs, CT and MRI and recovery was very quick and uneventful after medical and surgical treatment which should adhere to the general principles of treatment for bone and joint infections. Osteomyelitis of the patella should be considered as a probable cause when a child presents with anterior knee pain and inflammation. Early diagnosis and proper management would give good results.
