Example text
Aureus, in particular, has the capacity to adhere to the osseous matrix, releasing proteolytic enzymes that cause tissue destruction and allow further spread of the infection. From the medullary cavity, the infection extends into the subperiosteal space. In children, the periosteum is loosely attached to the bone, allowing accumulation of purulent collections. In cases where the elevation of the periosteum has been rapid, devascularization of the bone may occur, leading to associated septic osteonecrosis.

Bone neoplasms and osteomyelitis may also mimic each other. In general, a primary bone neoplasm manifests as a focal lesion with discrete margins replacing the bone marrow on T1W sequences. A very useful distinguishing feature between osteomyelitis and other bone marrow replacing processes is the presence of entrapped fat globules within the area of infection, whether in the medullary cavity, subperiosteal space or adjacent soft tissues. It is hypothesized that increased intramedullary pressure leads to fatty marrow necrosis with release of free fatty globules.
