The pubic symphysis is a rare site for osteomyelitis. We reported a case of osteomylitis pubic about 9 months after inguinal hernia repair. The causative organism is staphylococcus aureus resistant to all antibiotics except vancomycin. The patient was treated with antibiotics for six months without any surgical debridement. This is a report of a pubic osteomylitis following inguinal hernia repair.
