Osteomyelitis is an infection of bone tissue that involves all structures of the bone caused by microorganisms. The clinical picture is generally characterized by the presence of fistula drainage, severe pain, swelling, mobility of teeth involved in the affected area, fever and edema. Treatment involves medication and / or surgery. This article presents a case of chronic suppurative osteomyelitis in the maxilar superior of a female 82 years old patient, as well as a discussion of clinical and histopathological aspects and the treatment employed.
