Abstract

A scheme is presented for the classification of the most common infectious diseases of bacterial origin seen in skeletal material according to their most probable cause. When using this classification, it is stressed that particular attention should be given to the pattern of the pathological changes observed; it is most important to consider the skeleton in its entirety. In the majority of cases it would be difficult to attempt a classification on incomplete skeletons or on single skeletal elements.
