Enterobacter osteomyelitis

Enterobacter osteomyelitis is an infectious inflammatory condition affecting bone tissue and marrow caused by Gram-negative bacilli of the genus *Enterobacter*, most notably the *Enterobacter cloacae* complex It predominantly arises in adult and hospitalized populations through direct inoculation from high-energy traumatic open fractures, contamination during orthopedic surgical procedures, contiguous spread from infected soft-tissue ulcers, or, less frequently, hematogenous dissemination in imm...

It predominantly arises in adult and hospitalized populations through direct inoculation from high-energy traumatic open fractures, contamination during orthopedic surgical procedures, contiguous spread from infected soft-tissue ulcers, or, less frequently, hematogenous dissemination in immunocompromised individuals and intravenous drug users Clinical manifestations typically include localized bone pain, tenderness, erythema, soft-tissue swelling, and delayed wound or fracture healing, frequentl...

Pathophysiologically, the organism colonizes cortical or cancellous bone, triggering localized inflammation, thrombosis of microvasculature, progressive bone ischemia, necrosis, and subsequent sequestrum formation

Clinical manifestations typically include localized bone pain, tenderness, erythema, soft-tissue swelling, and delayed wound or fracture healing, frequently complicated by chronic relapsing infection due to bacterial biofilm formation and chromosomal beta-lactamase-mediated antimicrobial resistance
