Zusammenfassung

Mit zunehmender Lebenserwartung der Bevölkerung und stetig steigender medizinischer Kompetenz steigt auch die Zahl älterer, häufig abwehrgeschwächter Patienten. Immunkompromittierte Patienten bedürfen sowohl bei der Diagnosestellung als auch der Therapie der bakteriellen Osteitis besonderer Beachtung.
