Skull-based osteomyelitis, which is a true bony infection, originates from a chronic, inadequately treated infection. Because of the complex craniofacial skeletal anatomy and associated aesthetic concerns, osteomyelitis of the craniofacial skeleton must be uniquely managed and is more difficult to treat than osteomyelitis of other bones of the body. It is thought that osteomyelitis is decreasing in prevalence due to broad-spectrum antibiotic treatment; however, it still remains a challenging clinical entity in developing countries and lower socioeconomic areas.
颅骨骨髓炎是一种真正的骨感染,源自慢性、治疗不充分的感染。由于颅面骨骼解剖结构复杂,且存在相关的美观问题,因此颅面骨骼的骨髓炎必须采用独特的方法进行治疗,并且比身体其他部位的骨髓炎更难治疗。由于广谱抗生素的治疗,骨髓炎的发病率有所下降,但在发展中国家和社会经济水平较低的地区,骨髓炎仍然是一个具有挑战性的临床问题。
