Résumé
Decreased uptake of ischion osteitis with sulesomab scintigraphy. We report the case of a 28-year-old man, who underwent surgery for a left gluteal muscle abscess. During the surgery multiple specimens were taken from the abscess and the left ischion. These specimens revealed a coagulase-negative Staphylococcus abscess and a coagulase-negative Staphylococcus ischion osteitis. Bone scintigraphy showed an increased uptake in the ischion, while sulesomab scintigraphy demonstrated a decreased uptake in the same area. If a decreased uptake of sulesomab has already been described in bone spine infection, it has not yet been described in extraspinal infectious osteitis, to our knowledge.
