The first few days following the inception of infection are ultra-critical to long-term prognosis. A comprehensive road map for management of childhood AOI is still lacking despite recent advances in microbiology and imaging (magnetic resonance imaging). The many faces of childhood AOI warrant a multidiscipline approach to management. Laboratory and imaging findings of are still debatable and should not overshadow or delay a management plan based on the experienced physician\u2019s clinical judgment. Ample evidence-based practice supports the use of a few days of intravenous antibiotic administration followed by oral therapy until correlative clinical and basic laboratory (acute phase reactants) results improve. The growing body of evidence on \u2018high-risk\u2019 children\/neonates of AOI warrants continual clinical extra-vigilance in identifying these patient subsets. Open drainage and debridement remain the mainstay of treatment of septic hips, whereas for other joints the use of alternative surgical techniques should be individualized or on case-by-case basis. Because the consequences of misdiagnosis of AOI are usually grave and permanent, proactive treatment\/overtreatment is justified in the event of unconfirmed but suspicious diagnosis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Cite this article: EFORT Open Rev 2021;6:584-592.
