La osteomielitis hematógena es frecuente en la metáfisis de los huesos largos en la infancia; siendo esta misma afectación rara en otras localizaciones y más aun, extremadamente rara en el astrágalo, tanto así que se reportan solo unos pocos casos y de manera esporádica en la literatura mundial. En este trabajo presentamos un caso clínico, de una paciente preescolar que presento osteomielitis hematógena de astrágalo cuyo tratamiento médico y quirúrgico representaron y aun representan todo un reto para el ejercicio clínico debido a la dificultad del diagnostico etiológico y tórpida evolución.
