Thorough Debridement

Pseudomonas osteochondritis following puncture wounds of the foot is described in 13 children. All children had received at least one oral antibiotic and local wound therapy before admission; none had improved on these modalities. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was isolated alone from seven patients and with one or more other organisms from six patients. Initial administration of parenteral antibiotics active against Pseudomonas for one to 14 days did not result in clinical improvement. Eradication of Pseudomonas osteochondritis occurred in each patient only after thorough surgical debridement and curettage of all infected tissue. Following thorough surgical debridement, anti-Pseudomonas antibiotic therapy was continued for five to 14 days (10.8 ± 2.7 days). The successful treatment of Pseudomonas osteochondritis should include adequate surgical debridement of all infected tissue; following thorough debridement, only one to two weeks of anti-Pseudomonas antibiotic therapy appears to be necessary.

Odontogenic phlegmon of the mouth floor—Ludwig's angina (phlegmonae fundi cavi oris seu angina Ludovici)—is a rare, life-threatening, local complication in most cases of odontogenic inflammation. This study presents the case of a patient treated in the Department of Maxillofacial and Plastic Surgery of the University Hospital in Białystok due to phlegmon of the mouth floor resulting from odontogenic inflammation with a dynamic course. Quick diagnostics, surgical intervention as well as antibiotic therapy contributed to its efficient and successful treatment.

Total Hip

This report presents a clinical case of treatment of Salmonella coxitis, developed as a result of bacteremia, which is a fairly rare complication. We performed head resection of both femurs and, after long-term antibiotic therapy, total hip replacement within six months from the onset of the disease. Given the lack of publications on the tactics of treating patients with this pathology in the accessible medical literature, we believe that our experience will be useful to specialists engaged in the treatment of patients with diseases of large joints.

Third Generation Cephalosporins

Morganella morganii is a rare cause of peritonitis in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD). Most of the reported cases have resorted to a switch to hemodialysis. We herein report a case of peritonitis due to M. morganii resistant to third-generation cephalosporins, which was treated successfully with intraperitoneal (IP) tobramycin followed by oral ciprofloxacin. Early microbiologic diagnosis is essential in the treatment of peritonitis from rare microorganisms such as Morganella morganii, and appropriate antibiotic therapy is the key to avoiding catheter loss and subsequent switch to hemodialysis.
