Abstract

Experimental osteomyelitis of long bones was produced in animals by direct implantation and intravenous injection of Staphylococcus aureus. The latter route never produced jaw lesions. By a modified technic, S. aureus suspensions were implanted in the cancellous portion of the maxillae of rabbits. Eight of 9 animals developed chronic osteomyelitis at the site.
