    Summary

    Chronic sclerosing osteomyelitis (Garré) is a distinct bone disease in young individuals. Long-term follow-up shows persistent radiographic changes and limited treatment efficacy, suggesting bacterial origins.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedics
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Chronic sclerosing osteomyelitis (Garré) is a rare bone condition.
    • It primarily affects children and young adults.
    • The clinical course and radiographic features require long-term investigation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the long-term clinical course and radiographic findings of chronic sclerosing osteomyelitis (Garré).
    • To evaluate the efficacy of current treatment modalities.
    • To explore potential etiologies of the disease.

    Main Methods:

    • A retrospective analysis of eight patients diagnosed with chronic sclerosing osteomyelitis (Garré).
    • Average follow-up duration of 13 years.
    • Clinical assessment, including symptom status and recurrence, and radiographic evaluation.

    Main Results:

    • Five patients achieved symptom resolution after an average of 8 years.
    • Three patients experienced intermittent recurrences.
    • Radiographic findings consistently showed pronounced sclerosis, often with cystic areas, which remained stable or progressed despite symptom status.

    Conclusions:

    • Chronic sclerosing osteomyelitis (Garré) is a persistent condition with long-term radiographic changes.
    • Current treatments show limited impact on disease progression.
    • Low-virulent anaerobic bacterial infection is a potential etiological factor.
