Acute haematogenous osteomyelitis - what does this mean

Acute haematogenous osteomyelitis is an infection of the bone caused by bacteria travelling in the bloodstream from another infection site. it is most commonly seen in children and is characterized by pain, swelling, and fever.

What happens during the disease - acute haematogenous osteomyelitis

Вначале в толще костного мозга метафизарной зоны формируется небольшой гнойник. Поскольку устойчивость эпифизарного хряща к нагноению достаточно высока, гной распространяется в сторону диафиза, разрушая костный мозг и тем самым лишая кость питания изнутри. Через гаверсовы каналы гной проникает под надкостницу и отслаивает ее от кости, так кость лишается питания снаружи. Оставшаяся без питательных веществ кость разрушается, образуется участок остеонекроза.

 

Токсины из очага инфекции поступают в окружающие ткани и активно всасываются в кровь, что обуславливает развитие бурной интоксикации. А высокое давление гноя в полости, ограниченной костномозговым каналом, вызывает резкие, очень интенсивные боли. В последующем гной расплавляет надкостницу и проникает в мягкие ткани, вследствие чего формируется межмышечная флегмона. При прорыве флегмоны наружу образуется свищ на коже.
