Abstract
Pyogenic sacroilitis is an infrequent osteoarticular infection, and its diagnosis is a challenge in young children. A series of 20 cases is described. The median age was 15 months, 75% of them being under 2 years old. Fourteen (70%) reported fever. Refusal to sit was the main reason for consultation. Final diagnosis was confirmed by bone scintigraphy. All patients achieved a complete resolution without sequelae.Entities:
