Case Report & Review of Literature – the Unusual Case of Osteomyelitis of the Acromion
Alistair Pace,Luke Hughes +1 more
TL;DR: A case report of a 15 year old male who presented with a 4 day history of shoulder tip pain and symptoms of SIRS is presented, highlighting the potential association of osteomyelitis with acne, the importance of its early recognition and treatment to avoid complications.
Sequestration and Involucrum
TL;DR: The role of the periosteum in forming involucrum and creeping substitution which facilitate revascularization and bone formation are highlighted, and the induced membrane technique is discussed, a two-stage surgical procedure for cases of failed healing of sequestration.

FDG PET of Infection and Inflammation
TL;DR: FDG PET will likely assume increasing importance in assessing FUO, spinal osteomyelitis, vasculitis, and sarcoidosis and may even become the radionuclide imaging procedure of choice in the evaluation of some or all of these pathologic conditions.

MR Imaging Findings in Spinal Infections: Rules or Myths?
TL;DR: Most MR Imaging criteria commonly used to diagnose disk infections offer good to excellent sensitivity, however, some of the classically described MR imaging criteria may not be observed in atypical manifestations of proven spinal infections.
