Treatment of Infected Total Hip Arthroplasty

Abstract: 인공 고관절 주위 감염은 환자를 황폐화 시킬 수 있는 심각한 합병증이다. 이 합병증은 고관절 기능의 현저한 감 소는 물론, 진단의 불확실성, 항생제의 장기간 투여, 막대 한 치료비용, 재수술의 위험성 등으로 발생해서는 안 되는 것이기에 모든 병원이 인공관절 치환술 후에 합병증을 줄 이기 위해 노력하고 있다. Charnley와 Eftekhar 1) 는 초기 인공관절 술 후 감염률이 8.9%이었으나, 수술실 및 수술 팀의 철저한 소독, Laminar air flow system, 방수성 소독 포 등의 사용으로 1%까지 그 발생률을 낮추었다고 발표 하였다. 지금까지 가장 낮은 감염률을 보고한 것은 British Medical Research Trial의 0.3%이다 2) . 감염의 원 인에 대한 광범위한 지식과 예방법, 기술적 진보, 수술 수 기의 개선 등에도 불구하고 이보다 낮은 감염률을 이루어 내지 못하고 있다. 감염균이 인공관절 주위 공간에 도달하는 경로는 4개가 있다. 첫 번째는 수술도중 감염으로 잘 알려진… Show more

“…CRP level is an useful marker in forecasting treatment outcomes during antibiotic therapy or after surgical management of PJI18), but clinical symptoms such as pain, the surgical wound status, systemic fever and others cannot be overlooked. Most postoperative fevers are related to non-infective causes such as inflammatory cytokines (related to the development of surgery-induced tissue injury), responses to drugs or transfusion, anemia, deep vein thrombosis9).…”

“…Accurate diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) serves an important role because PJI may induce functional decline of the hip joint and pose significant financial burden for patients due to enormous medical costs resulting from long-term treatment and repeat operations1). However, making an accurate diagnosis is challenging since PJI is often asymptomatic or has no definite signs of infection2).…”
