OSTEOMYELITIS PROGNOSIS |
|
|
|
Prognosis varies depending on how
quickly an infection is identified, and what other underlying
conditions exist to complicate the infection. With quick,
appropriate treatment, only about 5% of all cases of acute
osteomyelitis will eventually become chronic osteomyelitis. Patients
with chronic osteomyelitis may require antibiotics periodically for
the rest of their lives. |
