    Background:

    • Osteomyelitis, a bone infection, can be caused by anaerobic bacteria.
    • Understanding anaerobic osteomyelitis is essential for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

    Observation:

    • This study reviewed 8 patient cases and 193 literature cases of anaerobic osteomyelitis.
    • Seven distinct clinical syndromes were identified, linked to specific anatomical locations.

    Findings:

    • Anaerobic osteomyelitis is more prevalent than previously recognized.
    • Key aspects discussed include incidence, predisposing factors, localization, bacteriology, presentation, and natural history.
    • Signs and symptoms are outlined to assist practitioners in recognition.
