Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is a rare bone disease primarily affecting children and adolescents. This study highlights its radiological features and introduces the "adult CRMO" variant, detailing its pathology and associations.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Rheumatology
  • Pediatrics

Background:

  • Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is an uncommon skeletal disorder.
  • It predominantly affects children and adolescents but can manifest in adults.
  • CRMO is characterized by recurrent bone inflammation and sclerosis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present the radiological aspects of CRMO.
  • To describe the newly identified
  • adult CRMO
  • variant.
  • To analyze the relationship between CRMO, SAPHO syndrome, and acquired hyperostosis.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of over 200 CRMO cases.
  • Analysis of clinical, histopathological, and imaging (radiological, MRT) features.

  • Discussion of differential diagnoses and associated conditions.

    • Main Results:

    • CRMO is an acquired, aseptic osteomyelitis, likely immune-mediated.
    • Adult-onset CRMO is presented for the first time.
    • Associations with pustulosis palmo-plantaris and psoriatic arthropathy are noted.
    • Radiological findings include bone sclerosis and differential diagnostic considerations.

    Conclusions:

    • CRMO is a distinct skeletal inflammatory condition with varied presentations.
    • Adult CRMO represents a significant diagnostic consideration in adult osteomyelitis.
    • Understanding imaging features is crucial for diagnosis and differentiating from other skeletal disorders.
