Pseudarthrosis presenting as a late complication of meningococcal septicaemia and disseminated intravascular coagulation.

Abstract:

:Late skeletal complications of meningococcal septicaemia and disseminated intravascular coagulation are well recognised in children and are largely centred on the growing epimetaphyseal region of long bones. In this article we describe a case of pseudarthrosis of the mid-ulna presenting 18 months following a devastating episode of meningococcal septicaemia in a 3-year-old boy. Radiographs and MRI demonstrated the ulna abnormality. We briefly review the late skeletal complications of the disease and other causes of pseudarthrosis.

  • Case report 623. Osteitis condensans of the left clavicle (OCC).

    abstract::A case of OCC in a 35-year-old woman is presented. Proof was obtained by open biopsy. This rare entity is benign and its etiology is still obscure. No definite association with osteitis pubis or osteitis condensans ilii has been reported. The involvement of the clavicle is invariably unilateral. The clinical and radio...
