Pyomyositis is a primary infection of striated muscles occurring most
commonly in healthy men. It is most commonly reported from tropical countries
and is responsible for 1 to 2% of surgical admissions in some tropical
countries. The disorder is rare in temperate zones, but with increase in
incidence of human immunodeficiency virus infection (HIV) , the disease has
recently been recognized with increasing frequency. Pyomyositis has rarely been
reported from India. The signs and symptoms of the disease are usually less
specific and high degree of suspicion is required for the diagnosis. MRI is a
sensitive and specific imaging modality for early detection. Staphylococcus
aureus is the most common organism responsible for the disease. Treatment
consists of surgical drainage and intravenous antibiotics. Key words: Tropical,
