A CASE OF MULTIPLE BONE LESIONS OF ATYPICAL ROENTGENOGRAPHIC APPEARANCE WITH THE PATHOLOGIC FINDINGS

Multiple Tuberculous Osteomyelitis With Both Formative and Destructive Lesions.

CHARLES L. BROWN M.D.1 and DANIEL M. STIEFEL M.D.1

1 The Department of Pathology of the Harvard Medical School and the Orthopaedic Clinic of the Children's Hospital.

This case is reported as one which illustrates the difficulty of differentiating roentgenographically between pyogenic osteomyelitis, tuberculosis, and syphilis. It furthermore offers an opportunity of correlating definite pathologic findings with an atypical radiographic appearance. Both destructive and formative types of bone lesions are present in a case proved to be tuberculosis. The case is a striking example of a predominately formative reaction in tuberculosis of bone.
