Abstract
Primary osteomyelitis in a teen-aged boy that mimicked Ewing's tumor radiologically showed small Gram-negative rods on the original smear. The organism isolated was an obligately anaerobic bacterium, finally identified as Clostridium sphenoides. This finding underlines the need for microbiologic analysis of orthopedic lesions.Entities:
