ABSTRACT
Actinomycosis is a chronic suppurative and granulomatous disease characterized by peripheral spread and extension to contagious tissue, rare hematogenous spread, and the formation of multiple draining sinus tracts. In the rare case of hematogenous disseminated Actinomycosis; lesions appear in all parts of the body. Bone involvement, however, is very rare except the jaw and there has been only some reports about the ribs and vertebral columns. To our knowledge, this case represents the first report of documented distal femoral involvement.
