Abstract

Preoperative 111In-labeled leukocyte scintigraphy demonstrated extensive subperiosteal abscesses complicating acute bilateral tibial osteomyelitis in a child. Plain radiographs showed only marked soft-tissue swelling; three-phase bone scintigraphy depicted both 'hot' and 'cold' areas consistent with acute osteomyelitis.
