M. Saidman on the basis of experimental studies and one clinical case recommends to use in acute and subacute osteomyelitis of tubular bones washing of medullary cavity with weak solutions of rivanol. For this purpose it is necessary to make several (2-5) holes in the tubular bone under local anesthesia and flush the medullary canal under weak pressure, so that infectious agents do not penetrate into the blood through the haversian canals.
