title: [Osteomyelitis of the sacrum].
abstract: In the axial skeleton, osteomyelitis of the os sacrum is rare, although it occurs more frequently than tuberculosis of the sacrum. Secondary osteomyelitis as a complication of tumours, metastases or inflammatory processes of the adjacent areas is seen more often than primary sacral osteomyelitis.
