Osteomyelitis cranii

Osteomyelitis cranii is an infection of the bone plate, most often occurring after surgery. There is also a great risk of penetrating injuries of the soft lbi cover with bone injuries, and a spontaneous transition in infections of the paranasal sinuses is also possible.

Causing agents

 * Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis.

Therapy

 * Osteomyelitis is very difficult to treat with ATB alone, usually requiring surgical revision with removal of the bone plate and excision of the infected bone.
 * We continue in 2-4 months of ATB treatment, cranioplasty (bone replacement newly created from polymeric material / Ti lattice) until the infection is completely cured.
