Osteomyelitis of the tarsal bones in children
1Department of Pediatrics and Child Health, Children's Hospital, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg.
Abstract:
The radiographic findings in seven children with tarsal osteomyelitis are described. The bones involved were the calcaneus, talus, cuboid, and navicular. The lesions appeared as single, subchondral, reasonably well-defined round lucencies measuring up to 12 mm in diameter. Bone scans were positive. The lesions healed slowly with surrounding sclerosis but no periosteal reaction.
