[Radiological findings in periosteal reaction due to inflammation (author's transl)].
Abstract
Presentation of radiographically apparent periosteal changes due to inflammation. Solid periosteal reaction is being distinguished from an interrupted-type reaction. Some cases of acute and chronic osteomyelitis, congenital and acquired lues, bony tuberculosis, leprosy and fungal disease serve to demonstrate the different types of periosteal reaction; and a differential diagnosis is being discussed. The diagnostic evaluation should include bone scanning in addition to routine radiography with special views and follow up examinations.
