Abstract: Osteomyelitis (OM) is still a major problem for orthopedists. Numerous studies have shown that genetic factors may play an important role in the pathogenesis of OM. As a third generation genetic marker, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have received increasing attention from scholars who are studying genetic susceptibility to OM. In-depth research on the SNPs of susceptibility genes will help to explore new strategies for prevention, diagnosis and treatment of OM. This article reviews the research advances concerning gene SNPs and OM susceptibility.
