penicillin g and Discitis

penicillin g has been researched along with Discitis in 9 studies

Penicillin G: A penicillin derivative commonly used in the form of its sodium or potassium salts in the treatment of a variety of infections. It is effective against most gram-positive bacteria and against gram-negative cocci. It has also been used as an experimental convulsant because of its actions on GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID mediated synaptic transmission.
benzylpenicillin : A penicillin in which the substituent at position 6 of the penam ring is a phenylacetamido group.

Discitis: Inflammation of an INTERVERTEBRAL DISC or disk space which may lead to disk erosion. Until recently, discitis has been defined as a nonbacterial inflammation and has been attributed to aseptic processes (e.g., chemical reaction to an injected substance). However, recent studies provide evidence that infection may be the initial cause, but perhaps not the promoter, of most cases of discitis. Discitis has been diagnosed in patients following discography, myelography, lumbar puncture, paravertebral injection, and obstetrical epidural anesthesia. Discitis following chemonucleolysis (especially with chymopapain) is attributed to chemical reaction by some and to introduction of microorganisms by others.

"Endarteritis is a major complication in patients with patent ductus arteriosus, causing significant morbidity and mortality."1.46 ( Daniel, J; Miraclin, AT; Perumalla, SK; Sathyendra, S, 2017)
"Spondylodiscitis is rarely caused by anaerobic germs and occurs mainly in patients weakened by another infection."1.29[Spondylodiscitis caused by Fusobacterium nucleatum. Apropos of a case]. ( Bussière, JL; Dubost, JJ; Ristori, JM; Soubrier, M; Urosevic, Z, 1995)
"Hematogenous infections (in this case septic arthritis) by Streptococcus bovis may present in patients without gastrointestinal diseases or endocarditis, possibly have a low damage to skeletal structures and respond adequately to conventional treatment with penicillin G."1.28[Septic arthritis due to Streptococcus bovis].
