Zusammenfassung
Eine Salmonellenosteomyelitis ist eine seltene und ungewöhnliche Erkrankung und häufig
mit einer Sichelzellanämie assoziiert (Carlson 1994). In diesem Fall war die Salmonellenosteomyelitis
nach distaler Radiusfraktur höchstwahrscheinlich auf hämatogenem Weg nach einer wohl
fünf Monate zuvor erlittenen fieberhaften Salmonellengastroenteritis aufgetreten.
Nach Ausräumung der Markraumphlegmone des Radius und Weiterbehandlung mittels parenteral
antibiotischer Therapie heilte der Infekt problemlos aus. Es werden die radiologischen
Befunde demonstriert, ausführlich die relevante Literatur diskutiert und die Ätiologie
der Salmonellenosteomyelitis dargestellt.
Abstract
Salmonella typhi osteomyelitis is an uncommon disease, usually associated with sickle
cell anemia (Carlson 1994). In this case, Salmonella osteomyelitis after a distal
radius fracture was apparently caused by hematogenous spread after a gastroenteritis
with Salmonella and association with fever. After debridement of septic bone marrow
of the radius and further treatment with parenteral antibiotics, the infection was
cured. We demonstrate the radiologic findings and discuss the relevant literatur and
report about the etiology of Salmonella osteomyelitis.
