Primary sternal osteomyelitis is a rare disease. Common infectious organisms causing primary sternal osteomyelitis include Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Actinomyces species are common saprophytes of the oral cavity, but there have been few reports in the literature of primary sternal osteomyelitis caused by Actinomyces species. We describe a case of primary sternal osteomyelitis caused by Actinomyces israelii without pulmonary involvement.
原发性胸骨骨髓炎是一种罕见疾病。引起原发性胸骨骨髓炎的常见感染病原体包括金黄色葡萄球菌和铜绿假单胞菌。放线菌属是口腔常见的腐生菌,但文献中关于放线菌属引起原发性胸骨骨髓炎的报道较少。我们描述了一例由以色列放线菌引起的无肺部受累的原发性胸骨骨髓炎病例。
