Overview

Classification

Two classification schemes exist for osteomyelitis:

  • Lew and Waldvogel classify osteomyelitis according to duration and mechanism of infection (traditional classification)[1]
  • Cierny and Mader classify osteomyelitis according to anatomy of bone infection and host physiology[2]
  • This classification offers a guide to treatment
