Bone marrow acupuncture, the front is better or the back is better

Apr 14, 2022

Osteomyelitis is inflammation of the periosteum, cortical bone, and bone marrow caused by purulent bacteria. Theoretically speaking, the disease should not be an intractable disease in today's highly developed antibacterial drugs. But this is not the case in clinical practice. Many patients with osteomyelitis are disabled due to deformity and stiffness of the joints, some patients have skin cancer due to long-term unhealed sinus tracts, and more importantly, some patients require amputation or even death due to inability to treat. From the point of view of the onset site, it is more common in the limbs, and more in the lower limbs, among which the tibia and femur are the most. There are basically three ways of infection:

1. Hematogenous osteomyelitis

Hematogenous osteomyelitis is mainly caused by the body's low immune function, such as a cold or a slight skin abrasion, which leads to inflammation caused by purulent bacteria entering the bone from the blood. Generally, the infection site has no obvious history of trauma. This disease is more common in children after the onset of the disease, with high fever above 39 degrees, accelerated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, white blood cell test between 15000-30000, periosteal reaction on x-ray, high local skin temperature, and deep tenderness.

2. Traumatic osteomyelitis

Traumatic osteomyelitis is a bone infection caused by bacteria infiltrating the bone tissue through the blood after a deep infection of the muscle tissue caused by physical trauma (such as open fractures, etc.) or skin rupture (such as denervated bone exposure). , The disease is generally manifested as local pus sinuses, wound skin temperature is too high, blood tests showed increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate, increased white blood cells, and X-rays showed obvious bone destruction.

3, iatrogenic osteomyelitis

Iatrogenic osteomyelitis is a kind of traumatic osteomyelitis in a broad sense. It is a bone infection caused by incomplete disinfection or indifference of aseptic awareness during orthopedic surgery in hospitals. Although it is a rare medical record in orthopedic surgery, it is one of the three major ways of bone infection.
