The diagnosis of a Brodie's abscess was made. Surgical treatment combined with antibiotic therapy was performed. The evolution was favourable.</p><p>Conclusion: Brodie's abscess is a subacute osteomyelitis that can pose a diagnostic problem with bone tumors. Magnetic Resonance Imaging has a place in the diagnosis. Patient management must be multidisciplinary.</p> | ||
