Abstract
Musculoskeletal infection (MSKI) in children is a critical condition in pediatric orthopedics due to the potential for serious adverse outcomes, including multiorgan dysfunction syndrome, which can lead to death. The diagnosis and treatment of MSKI continue to evolve with advancements in infectious organisms, diagnostic technologies, and pharmacologic treatments. It is imperative for pediatric orthopedic surgeons and medical teams to remain up to date with the latest MSKI practices.
