(OS-tee-oh-MY-eh-LY-tis) Inflammation of the bone caused by an infection, which may spread to the bone marrow and tissues near the bone. Osteomyelitis can cause severe pain in the infected bone. If it is not treated, it can kill bone tissue.

Sternal osteomyelitis refers to an infection of the marrow of the sternal bone, which may be primary or secondary in nature. In secondary osteomyelitis, there is an adjacent focus of infection, which usually develops in cardiac surgeries, intravenous drug users, and immunocompromised patients.
Subacute osteomyelitis is a hematogenous infection of bone characterized by an insidious course (longer than 2 weeks), and paucity of systemic symptoms with local tenderness or swelling are the only clinical signs.
Acute hematogenous osteomyelitis is the most common type of bone infection. It is usually seen in children and is more common in boys. The infection generally occurs in areas of high metabolic activity and commonly affects the distal femoral and proximal tibial metaphyses.

Inflammation of the bone marrow and adjacent bone caused by a pyogenic organism ; it may remain localized or may spread through the bone to involve the marrow, cortex, cancellous tissue, and periosteum.

Chronic multifocal osteomyelitis is a rare condition that also is referred to as chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis, or SAPHO syndrome (synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, osteitis). The cause of the condition is unknown, and tissue cultures typically fail to identify any infectious organism.
Acute osteomyelitis is an inflammation of the bone caused by an infectious organism. The condition develops rapidly during the course of several days. It is characterized by localized pain, soft-tissue swelling, and tissue warmth at the site of the infection, plus systemic symptoms such as fever, irritability, fatigue, and nausea.
As with all infectious processes in which the infectious agent is not a component of the code that describes the condition, an additional code from categories B95-B97 should be assigned to identify the infectious agent, assuming it can be identified. Any major osseous defects also should be identified with a code from subcategory M89.7.
It is characterized by multiple areas of bone inflammation, and the predominant localized symptom is a deep, aching pain. When the inflammation is present in the lower extremities, gait is affected. Fever also may or may not be present.
Multiple sites. Other osteomyelitis (M86.8) which includes Brodie’s abscess, requires only the general region (shoulder, upper arm, forearm, hand, thigh, lower leg, ankle/foot, other site, and unspecified site). Laterality is not a component of codes in category M86.8. Unspecified osteomyelitis (M86.9) is not specific to a site.
Brodie’s abscess previously was classified as a type of chronic osteomyelitis, but most scholarly literature now refers to it as a sub-acute condition. The defining characteristic is the presence of a bone abscess surrounded by dense fibrous tissue and sclerotic bone. Subcategory M86.9 reports unspecified osteomyelitis.
The infectious organism then is carried through the bloodstream to the bone. The most common infectious organism is Staphylococcus aureus. In children, the most common sites of infection are the long bones of the extremities, and in adults the most common sites are the lumbar vertebrae.

For example, if the record indicates a history of osteomyelitis and there is another possible cause of osteomyelitis, such as an infection due to a pressure ulcer or tuberculosis or typhoid. Another example might be if a patient has a complicated history including diabetes.
This infection occurs predominantly in children and is often disseminated via the blood stream (hematogenously). In adults, osteomyelitis is usually a subacute or chronic infection that develops secondary to an open injury to bone and surrounding soft tissue.
