The diagnosis of osteomyelitis in severe osteopetrosis may be difficult since altered bone architecture and fractures veil the typical radiographic signs of inflammation. We present a case of adult osteopetrosis with questionable clinical and radiographic signs of two osteomyelitic foci in the foot.
Despite severe skeletal disease, the combination of skeletal and leukocyte scintigraphy suggested the diagnosis of infection.
严重骨硬化症中骨髓炎的诊断可能具有挑战性，因为骨骼结构改变和骨折掩盖了典型的炎症影像学表现。我们报告一例成年骨硬化症患者，足部有两个骨髓炎病灶，其临床和影像学表现存疑。
尽管存在严重的骨骼疾病，但骨骼和白细胞闪烁扫描相结合提示了感染的诊断。
