[Pyomyositis].
Pyomyositis (PM) is characterized by bacterial infection and suppuration of striated muscle. It is very rarely encountered in temperate climates. Only five cases have hitherto been reported in Denmark. Two cases of PM are presented. Both of these demonstrate the difficulty of establishing early diagnosis and the severe complications of PM.
