title: Successful treatment of osteomyelitis caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
abstract: A case of generalized osteomyelitis due to Ps. aeruginosa is described. The condition had failed to respond to therapy with almost all antibiotics available but responded to long-term therapy with carbenicillin in very large doses, and it is suggested that this is now the treatment of choice for severe infections due to this organism.
