Abstract
Summary: Forty-five children underwent initial nonoperative treatment of hematogenous septic arthritis in joints other than the hip. Only joints with symptoms for 3 years. Early diagnosis and treatment are more important than the method of drainage. If a lack of response is seen to initial nonoperative treatment, surgical drainage will still lead to a satisfactory outcome.Keywords
