ABSTRACT
Acute hematogenous osteomyelitis of the acetabulum is not a common disease with similar clinical symptoms and hematological findings to those of pyogenic arthritis of the hip joint. This symptom similarity might lead to a delayed diagnosis of the disease, and even to unnecessary surgery. We report two cases of acute hematogenous osteomyelitis of the acetabulum. One was a 13-year-old boy with non-specific radiological findings of the hip joint, who was initially diagnosed with fever of unknown origin. The other was an 11-year-old boy with hip joint pain and a recent history of minor trauma, which lead to a delayed diagnosis.
