No full text58 patients with chronic osteomyelitis were treated either with a standard therapy or with a
specific targeted therapy based on the antibiogram assay. Standard therapy was performed by a 15-day
course of a parenteral cephalosporin (usually ceftriaxone) in combination with an aminoglycoside
(e.g. netilmicin), followed by oral therapy with a fluoroquinolone (generally ciprofloxacin) for 1 to 3
months; specific therapy largely varied depending on the antibiogram response. The results indicated
that no significant differences were found between the patients who received standard therapy (95.5 %
cured) and those who received a specific therapy (93.5 % cured), after a one year follow-up. It can be
concluded that a short-term combined parenteral-oral standard therapy, indicated in all those cases
where antibiotic therapy must be started before obtaining the laboratory response, or when a clear and
definite identification of the microorganisms involved in the infection is not possible, can be as
efficient as an antibiogram-guided therapy in the treatment of chronic osteomyelitis
