Cases of fusiform bacteria sepsis have been reported infrequently in the pediatric literature. This case demonstrates the severe metastatic complications of fusiform bacterial sepsis including osteomyelitis, with multiple pathological fractures, sepsis, and abscesses of the liver. In the diagnostic evaluation of the etiology for this uncommon infection, child abuse was discovered in all children of this family. In children with uncommon infections and no underlying etiology, child abuse should be considered. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
