Abstract
Osteomyelitis in the neonate has distinct physiologic and clinical features that are reviewed in this article. Most cases are the result of hematogenous dissemination, but direct inoculation and extension of infection from surrounding soft tissue occur. The outcome is dependent on several factors and generally difficult to predict at the time of diagnosis.Entities:
