Acute hematogenous osteomyelitis (AHO) in adults is a rare disease complicating timely diagnosis. Even greater difficulties are observed in case of pelvic bone lesion. The authors report AHO of the pelvis an adult. Osteomyelitis was complicated by generalized infection and multiple pyogenic abscesses in subcutaneous adipose tissue of the upper and lower extremities. Detection of primary infectious focus was complicated by extreme severity of the patient's condition and low informative value of X-ray and ultrasound at the early stage of disease. Staphylococcus aureus was obtained from blood culture and infectious foci. Surgical debridement along with complex intensive care ensured a positive outcome.
