Abstract
Osteomyelitis mainly develops in long tubular scars, while in short and flat bones they are rarely observed. Ostomyelitis of the upper jaw is especially rare. Cadenat and Cola say that maxillary osteomyelitis is in the last row in the statistical tables. Trendel found only 4 cases of maxillary osteomyelitis in 1279 cases of osteomyelitis, i.e. 0.3%. Panzel reports 7 cases of maxillary osteomyelitis per 15 thousand patients. Mayer collected 10 cases in the literature until 1901, Francois collected 32 cases in 1914, and Terracol in 1926 already cites 50 cases of osteomyelitis of the upper jaw in his work.
