Abstract:
Brodie's abscess is a primary subacute pyogenic osteomyelitis that has a thin wall of fibrous tissue and sclerotic bone. The authors have encountered a case of a Brodie's abscess that was developed in the same place of both tibia at the same time and treated the case with surgery and continuous closed irrigation.
