Abstract

Chronic osteomyelitis in children is very difficult to eradicate completely. The patient with chronic osteomyelitis has a new hope of cure by recent advances in the management of chronic osteomyelitis. Systemic manifestations may subside, but one or more foci in the bone may contain purulent material, infected granulation tissue or a sequestrum.
