[An initial assessment of therapeutic value of strontium 85 isotope in treatment of chronic osteomyelitis in adults].
An initial assessment of treatment of chronic osteomyelitis in 16 adults with Strontium 85 is presented. A dose 3.5-5 times greater than standard scintigraphic one was administered. In 3 cases the dose has been repeated because of the persistence of infection. The radionuclide was well tolerated. In 14 cases ceasing of osteomyelitis have been achieved. Laboratory tests showed no abnormalities.
