Our aim was to review a single-centre experience of S. aureus vertebral osteomyelitis, with focus on flucloxacillin treatment.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A single-centre retrospective cohort of patients with Staphylococcus aureus vertebral osteomyelitis (n = 40) was identified between 2010 and 2016. Patients were further stratified by antibiotic treatment strategy with focus on oral flucloxacillin therapy (n = 24). Primary outcomes were relapse or death within 12 months of treatment initiation, and antibiotic-related adverse effects during treatment.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) caused 38 of the infections (95%), and five patients (13%) died, all in-hospital. Flucloxacillin was used for at least 75% of the oral treatment duration in 24 patients (60%). Median antibiotic treatment duration among these patients was 125.5 days (IQR 95-182), 109 days (IQR 76-149) of which comprised oral antibiotics. There were two relapses and two deaths among the patients treated predominantly with flucloxacillin, resulting in a composite clinical cure rate of 83% (20 of 24).</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Prolonged oral flucloxacillin administration could be a potential treatment option for MSSA vertebral osteomyelitis. A prospective study of optimal treatment duration and dosing strategies for flucloxacillin in vertebral osteomyelitis is warranted.</p>","PeriodicalId":11782,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases","volume":" ","pages":"2077-2084"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12457446/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144157407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
