چکیده
Introduction Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is an inflammatory disorder of unknown etiology, characterized by nonbacterial inflammatory bone lesions. The bone lesions can be unifocal or multifocal, and have an either uniphasic or recurrent course. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and Glucocorticoid have been reported to be effective in some cases, and more recently tumor necrosis factoralpha (TNF-a) inhibitors have shown effect in more treatment resistant cases.
