Piomiositis en niños. reporte de 2 casos

Abstract

Pyomyositis (PM) is an uncommon pyogenic infection of skeletal muscle and, when not properly treated, it can progress to a high-risk clinical situation with high mortality. Because it usually has a subacute presentation, diagnosis is often delayed. We present two cases of PM of the paraspinal muscles in healthy children and discuss the current state of knowledge of this disease.
