| Popis: | The increase in injury to bone secondary to vehicular accidents or work-related trauma, as well as different sport activities, with subsequent infection, and increase in major reconstructive surgical procedures, have contributed to a definite rise in the incidence of infections and nonhematogenous osteomyelitis. The most effective treatment remains their prevention by meticulous wound care and debridement after open fractures. Appropriate antibiotic treatment and early soft tissue coverage should lower further the incidence of this complication, but the emergence of resistant bacterial strains has complicated treatment with consequences in terms of medical care and cost. |
