ABSTRACT
The authors have made a review of the literature about two cases of osteomyelitis of the iliac ala. They insist on rarity of the disease and how often the right diagnosis may be delayed because of misleading clinical symptoms. Any tumefaction of the buttock associated with pelvic pain and with an infectious syndrome necessarily evoke an iliac osteomyelitis. The bone scan may be negative which need not exclude the possibility. The evolution may be the formation of intra or extra or sometimes simultaneous sub-periosteal abscesses which must be drained. This is the reason why the authors advise to verify systematically the other side of the ilium by its surgical trepanning in case of a sub-periosteal abscess.
