Resumo: | A previously healthy 12-month-old boy, was observed in the emergency department due to refusal to walk, initially diagnosed as transient synovitis of the hip. After one month, he is again observed due to the persistence of symptoms and fever. On objective examination he presented refusal to walk, reporting no difficulties in crawling. A conventional radiography showed lytic lesion on the medial condyle of the left femur and computed tomography (CT) revealed a probable Brodie abscess. Patient was referred to pediatric orthopedics consultation and then performed a magnetic ressonance that confirmed osteomyelitis with an intraosseous abscess. He was submitted to surgical drainage and four weeks of antibiotic therapy, with no sequelae after one year. Brodie’s abscess is a subtype of subacute osteomyelitis characterized by the formation of an intramedullary abscess, predominantly in the long bones. It is difficult to diagnose since the symptoms can be mild, mimicking several malignant or benign conditions. Radiology plays a key role in its identification. The treatment can be medical or medical-surgical, usually with a good prognosis. |

Inicialmente diagnosticada como sinovite transitória da anca. Reobservada após um mês por manutenção dos sintomas e febre. Ao exame objetivo recusava marcha, mas gatinhava bem. Realizou radiografia que mostrou lesão lítica no côndilo medial do fémur esquerdo e tomografia computorizada, que revelou provável abcesso de Brodie. Transferido para observação por ortopedia pediátrica, realizou ressonância magnética, que confirmou osteomielite com abcesso intraósseo. Submetido a drenagem cirúrgica e quatro semanas de antibioterapia, encontrando-se sem sequelas após um ano. O abcesso de Brodie é um subtipo de osteomielite subaguda caracterizada pela formação de um abcesso intramedular, predominantemente nos ossos longos. É de difícil diagnóstico, uma vez que a sintomatologia é pouco exuberante, podendo mimetizar algumas condições benignas ou malignas. A imagiologia tem um papel fundamental na sua identificação. O tratamento pode ser médico ou médico-cirúrgico, habitualmente com bom prognóstico.Centro Hospitalar Universitário do Porto2018-10-17T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.25753/BirthGrowthMJ.v27.i3.12889eng2183-9417Ferreira, Jorge AbreuMartins, CristianaPeixoto, PauloDuarte, FilipeTorres, José SamaniegoSantos, Jorge Françainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2022-09-21T14:55:26Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/12889Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T15:56:24.636205Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |

A conventional radiography showed lytic lesion on the medial condyle of the left femur and computed tomography (CT) revealed a probable Brodie abscess. Patient was referred to pediatric orthopedics consultation and then performed a magnetic ressonance that confirmed osteomyelitis with an intraosseous abscess. He was submitted to surgical drainage and four weeks of antibiotic therapy, with no sequelae after one year.
