Abstract
Two unusual cases involving 2 patients with 3 hematogenously spread acute staphylococcal infections that occurred in musculotendinous compartments and required surgical debridement are reported. Infections that persist despite intravenous administration of antibiotics may indicate rare closed-space infections.
