Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus as a cause of a quadriceps tendon tear.
[pyomyositis]
Methicillin-resistant
Staphylococcus
aureus
(
MRSA
)
is
an
important
causative
agent
in
myositis
and
pyomyositis
,
but
its
involvement
in
quadriceps
tendon
tears
has
not
been
reported
until
now
.
In
the
case
reported
here
,
accurate
diagnosis
was
delayed
because
of
the
unique
presentation
,
and
the
infection
was
mismanaged
with
corticosteroids
because
of
the
presumptive
diagnosis
of
an
inflammatory
pathology
.
Subsequently
,
aggressive
surgical
and
antibiotic
management
produced
a
satisfactory
outcome
.
Early
detection
and
appropriate
management
of
these
infections
are
extremely
important
in
preventing
limb
-
and
life-threatening
consequences
.
