PJI-TNM als neues Klassifikationssystem für Endoprotheseninfektionen

Abstract: Zusammenfassung Hintergrund Bisherige Klassifikationen für Protheseninfektionen beurteilen die Heterogenität der Infektion nur unzureichend. Die PJI-TNM-Klassifikation berücksichtigt auf Basis der onkologischen TNM-Klassifikation folgende entscheidende Kriterien bei Protheseninfektionen: Implantatart und -stabilität, Weichteilverhältnisse, Biofilmreife, Erregerart, Komorbiditäten des Patienten und Infektrezidive. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, die neue PJI-TNM-Klassifikation auf der… Show more

“…We read with great interest the article by Lunz et al [ 1 ], in which the authors dealt with the new Periprosthetic Joint Infection (PJI)-TNM classification that was recently published by our group ( Table 1 ) [ 2 , 3 , 4 ]. PJI represents one of the most feared complications in the orthopedic field, resulting in impaired quality of life, repeated and prolonged hospital stays, and significant morbidity and mortality in affected patients.…”

“…We greatly appreciate the comments made by Alt et al [1] regarding our recently published article in JCM, in which we report the impact and modification of a new classification (PJI-TNM classification) for periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) [2]. Alt et al defined the soft tissue situation (T = tissue and implant), the causative microorganism (N = non-human cell), and the host (M = comorbidity of the patient) as the key characteristics of a PJI and transferred them to the three-letter backbone of TNM [3][4][5].…”
