| Abstrakt: | Cutibacteria are gram-positive, non-sporulating, anaerobic, or microaerophilic bacilli that are increasingly recognized in the setting of indolent post-operative infection. Clinically significant infection with Cutibacterium avidum in the pediatric population is rarely encountered. Herein, we report our experience with two pediatric cases of osteomyelitis and soft tissue abscess after femoral derotational osteotomy for congenital hip dysplasia.
