Summary

Osteomyelitis significantly alters bone structure, causing thinning and porosity in cortical bone. These changes, typically seen in aging, are prominent in patients with this bone infection.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Pathology
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Osteomyelitis is a bone marrow inflammation, often caused by Staphylococcus aureus.
  • It commonly affects long bones like the femur, tibia, and humerus.
  • Micro-computed tomography (μCT) allows detailed investigation of bone micro-architecture.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the long bone microstructure in osteomyelitis using μCT.
  • To analyze structural changes in historic bone samples affected by osteomyelitis.

Main Methods:

  • Examined 23 osteomyelitic femora from historical samples and 9 control femora from body donors.
  • Assessed bone microstructure using micro-computed tomography (μCT) with 18 μm resolution.

Main Results:

  • Cortical alterations were most prominent in osteomyelitic femora.
  • Cortical porosity was observed in 71.4% of osteomyelitis cases.
  • Cortical thinning (57.1%) and trabecularisation of cortical bone (42.9%) were also noted.

Conclusions:

  • Osteomyelitis leads to significant changes in cortical bone structure.
  • These structural alterations, including porosity and thinning, resemble those typically seen in advanced age.
