Choice of Treatment Tactics for Recurrent Forms of Chronic Osteomyelitis in Children
Downloads
Chronic osteomyelitis in children is a complex and pressing problem in pediatric surgery and orthopedics. This disease is characterized by a prolonged course with persistent infectious-inflammatory process in bone tissue and destruction of bone structures. The recurrent forms of the disease present a particular complexity, requiring a comprehensive approach to diagnosis and treatment. Delay in diagnosis and adequate therapy can lead to serious complications, including limb deformities, functional disorders, and even systemic consequences of infection.
