Early diagnosis, treatment, and long-term follow-up of CRMO are essential. We describe a 10-year-old boy who presented with 15 days of left ankle bone more than joint pain, swelling, and limp. Plain radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging scans were nondiagnostic of osteomyelitis and tibial irrigation and biopsy were negative for infection and malignancy. Four years later, he again presented with similar pain in his right ankle. Repeat bone biopsy noted reactive bone changes and bone culture was sterile. Whole-body magnetic resonance imaging revealed multiple enhancing lesions in the long bones of bilateral lower extremities, spine, and sternum. He was diagnosed with CRMO, and treatment with celecoxib and subsequently pamidronate, infliximab, and methotrexate were initiated. After 6 months of treatment, the patient\u2019s gait and pain improved, and 2 years later, his CRMO was in clinical and radiologic remission. Of note, he developed palmoplantar pustular psoriasis, commonly seen in CRMO, that was not determined to be from tumor necrosis factor inhibition.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.2024-067527","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,26]],"date-time":"2024-09-26T08:05:55Z","timestamp":1727337955000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Chronic
