Abstract
Osteomyelitis of the patella should be among the differential diag noses when a child presents with an acute or subacute cellulitis of the anterior knee or with a persistent effusion of the knee.

One adult and two children are known to have had generalized convulsions during or following intra venous gentamicin therapy for a Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection.Keywords
