Abstract
|
|
|
|
Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is a non-infectious inflammatory bone disease that occurs mainly in children and adolescents. The clinical presentation shows imprecise bone pain, while radiologic findings and histologic exam are similar to those of infectious osteomyelitis. It is a rare disease, which is difficult to distinguish from other diseases, therefore it could be misdiagnosed. We report on a case of CRMO on the distal tibia and fibula in an 11-year-old boy.
