1 Surrounding the mucosa is the submucosa layer of the stomach. 2  The submucosa is made up of various connective tissues, blood vessels, and nerves. 3  Connective tissues support the tissues of the mucosa and connect it to the muscularis layer.
Osteomyelitis is an inflammation or swelling of bone tissue that is usually the result of an infection. Bone infection may occur for many different reasons and can affect children or adults.
In adults, osteomyelitis is usually a subacute or chronic infection that develops secondary to an open injury to bone and surrounding soft tissue. The specific organism isolated in bacterial osteomyelitis is often associated with the age of the patient or a common clinical scenario (i.e., trauma or recent surgery). Staphylococcus aureus is implicated in most patients with acute hematogenous osteomyelitis.
