Infectious arthritis is a commonly encountered clinical problem which may result from articular contamination by a wide variety of organisms. Involvement of an articulation may occur by one of four mechanisms: hematogenous spread, spread from a contiguous source of infection, direct implantation, or postoperative contamination.

Septic arthritis is a medical emergency that can lead to significant morbidity and mortality. Prompt recognition and treatment are critical to ensuring a good prognosis. Thus, this article reviews the clinical presentation, microbiology, diagnostic workup, and outcome of nonprosthetic joint infections.

This chapter describes a rational approach to septic arthritis based on sound principles of pathology and therapeutics. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment are essential if normal function of the infected joint is to be restored. In any acute joint disease, infection must be suspected, and if present, detected.

Septic arthritis of the wrist is an uncommon condition, but one that can result in substantial morbidity. Timely identification and treatment is critical to patient care. No serum laboratory values have been shown to consistently confirm wrist joint infection. Thus, diagnosis is made based mainly on a thorough patient history, physical examination, and

Septic Arthritis in the Elderly
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1990Twenty-one patients older than 60 years of age with septic arthritis were reviewed over a ten-year period. The knee was the joint most commonly involved. Concurrent medical illnesses were noted in the majority of patients, with diabetes mellitus present in 24%.

Septic arthritis is a direct invasion of the joints by pathogenic micro-organisms. These micro-organisms and their products stimulate the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and proteolytic enzymes that induce an inflammatory response and degradation of the cartilage.

Septic arthritis has increased in incidence in the United States in the past two decades, and increasingly affects an older population with a greater burden of chronic illness and a higher risk for drug-resistant organisms. Successful management depends on a high diagnostic suspicion, empiric antibiotic treatment, and joint drainage.

During a 3 1/2 year period anaerobic septic arthritis was diagnosed in 43 patients (46 joints). The hip and knee accounted for 83% of the infected joints. Anaerobic infections complicated elective musculoskeletal surgery in 23 patients, including 21 with total joint arthroplasties. An additional 12 patients developed septic arthritis following surgical
