Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The annual incidence of pediatric osteomyelitis is approximately 13 per 100,000 individuals. [1]
- The annual incidence in adult osteomyelitis is approximately 90 per 100,000 individuals.[2]
Age
- Osteomyelitis occurs all patient age groups.
- Hematogenous osteomyelitis occurs predominantly in children and elderly patients.
- The most common form of the disease in adults is osteomyleitis due to contiguous infection, resulting from trauma or surgery.
Gender
Race
- Osteomyleitis occurs equally among all races.[4]
Developed vs Developing Countries
