摘要
We present a case of septic arthritis of a lumbar facet joint with an associated epidural abscess. A 13-year-old boy was hospitalized with acute severe back pain and fever after pyonex was done. The infection was precisely localized with magnetic-resonance imaging, bone and gallium scintigraphy-He responded to antibiotic therapy. We suppose that the infection was caused by pyonex because the blood cultures were negative, and the patient had an abrupt onset of severe pain:and fever 24 h after the acupuncture.
