Pseudomonas osteomyelitis following puncture wounds.
Puncture wounds of the foot are rarely followed by serious complications but in 1968 Johanson reported eleven cases of osteomyelitis, the infecting organism being Pseudomonas aeruginosa in each instance.

Puncture wounds are a common cause of minor trauma in children. These injuries can lead to serious infectious complications if not managed properly, especially if there is involvement of the plantar surface of the foot.1 There is a striking paucity of data in the pediatric literature on the management of plantar puncture wounds.

متن کاملThe natural history of pedal puncture wounds in diabetics: a cross-sectional survey
BACKGROUND Surgeons usually witness only the limb-threatening stages of infected, closed pedal puncture wounds in diabetics. Given that this catastrophic outcome often represents failure of conservative management of pre-infected wounds, some suggest consideration of invasive intervention (coring or laying-open) for pre-infected wounds in hope of preventing contamination from evolving into infe...
متن کاملMaintenance of turgor by rapid sealing of puncture wounds in leaf epidermal cells.
When leaf epidermal cells are puncture wounded with a glass microcapillary tip, a small droplet of fluid is discharged and then evaporates, leaving a solid residue on the cell surface. For puncture wounds of about 3.5 micrometers in diameter, this process is complete within 2 to 3 seconds. A second puncture wound also exhibits a similar discharge, indicating the persistence of some turgor press...
