Abstract
Osteoarticular tuberculosis (OAT) is not uncommon in children. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to avoid ultimately long-term disabilities. Nicolas Andry (1658-1742) gave for the first time the name of the specialty of Orthopedics (L'Orthopedie) and its symbol of the crooked tree, in a paper in which he suggested how to avoid and to treat rachitis in children. We review the correlative-imaging findings and provide insights regarding the strengths and limitations of the conventional imaging modalities and those of nuclear medicine for the diagnosis of OAT and its differential diagnosis from other diseases.
