AbstractTropical pyomyositis (TP), a suppurative disease caused predominantly by Staphylococcus aureus, is responsible for 3% to 4% of surgical admissions in some hospitals in certain tropical countries. This study describes the clinical features of 35 patients with TP (20 males, 15 females; mean ± SD age 28.3 ± 14.1 years) admitted to our hospital ...

We present 87 cases of chronic leg ulcers. The ages and sexes of the patients, and the symptomatology and complications, are described. The term "tropical ulcer" is inappropriate for these cases--though the term may be appropriate for certain rare acute ulcers colonized by Vincent's bacilli.

We review 230 cases of tropical ulcers, includied reports of 7 cases with squamous cell carcinoma. We think the etiology may be a combination of the hot, humid environment, trauma, local infection, and malnutrition. Agressive treatment of these ulcers is advocated, to heal the wounds and to prevent malignant transformation.

A large number of causal agents produce spinal cord lesions in the tropics. Most etiologies found in temperate regions also occur in the tropics including trauma, herniated discs, tumors, epidural abscess, and congenital malformations. However, infectious and nutritional disorders occur with higher prevalence in tropical regions.
