Abstract

Introduction: Septic arthritis of the knee is a serious disease usually caused by bacterial infection. Although this disease is not age-restricted, many cases involve elderly people and young children. The present study evaluated the clinical and laboratory findings of patients aged ≥65 years who underwent surgery for diagnosed septic arthritis of the knee.Materials and Method: We retrospectively reviewed all patients’ preoperative demographic data and comorbidities, as well as preoperative and postoperative clinical and laboratory findings. All patients were followed postoperatively at the 3rd and 6th weeks and 6th month and until a mean final follow-up of 36.0±21.6 (12–95) months.Results: This retrospective clinical study included 56 patients (34 men, 22 women) who underwent surgery during 2010–2017. The mean age and body mass index (kg/m²) were 77.3 and 27.6, respectively. In 43 patients (76.8%), at least one infectious agent could be isolated from joint debridement material. The most commonly isolated bacterium was Staphylococcus aureus (28 patients, 50%). Between all follow-up time points, we observed statistically significant decreases in C-reactive protein levels and erythrocyte sedimentation rates (both p

Özet

Giriş: Diz septik artrit, çoğunlukla bakteriyel enfeksiyonların neden olduğu önemli bir hastalıktır. Her yaşta teşhis edilmesine rağmen, diz septik artrit genellikle yaşlılar ve küçük çocuklarda görülür. Gecikmiş tanı ve tedavi eklem tahribatına yol açabilir. Bu durum morbidite ve mortaliteyi ciddi olarak artırır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, diz septik artrit tanısı ile ameliyat edilen 65 yaş veya üstü hastaların klinik ve laboratuvar sonuçlarını sunmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya sadece 65 yaş veya üstü hastalar dahil edildi. Hastalar preoperatif demografik verileri, preoperatif komorbiditeleri, preoperatif ve postoperatif klinik ve laboratuvar sonuçları açısından retrospektif olarak gözden geçirildi. Ortalama postoperatif takip süresi (ay) 36.0±21.6 (12-95) idi. Bulgular: Bu çalışma retrospektif klinik çalışma olarak tasarlanmıştır. 2010-2017 yılları arasında diz septik artrit tanısı ile opere edilen 56 hasta (34 erkek, 22 kadın) çalışmaya dahil edildi. Yaş ve beden kütle indeksi ortalamaları sırasıyla 77.3 ve 27.6 idi. Eklem debridman materyalinden en az bir ajanın 43 (% 76,8) hastada izole edildiğini bulduk. En sık izole edilen bakteri staphylococcus aureus (28 olgu,% 50) idi. Tüm takip süreleri arasında c-reaktif protein ve eritrosit sedimentasyon hızında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı azalma, SF-36 skor ortalamalarında ise istatistiksel olarak anlamlı artış saptandı (p
