Klassifikation der Osteomyelitis und Osteitis

Abstract: A classification of osteomyelitis must reflect the complexity of the disease and, moreover, provide conclusions for the treatment. The classification is based on the following eight parameters: source of infection (OM [osteomyelitis]/OT [post-traumatic OM]), anatomic region, stability of affected bone (continuity of bone), foreign material (internal fixation, prosthesis), range of infection (involved structures), activity of infection (acute, chronic, quiescent), causative microbes (unspecific and specific bac… Show more

“…However, these intervals were arbitrarily established based on the authors’ clinical experience. Schmidt et al 13 incorporated these parameters as part of a broad classification for osteomyelitis, but stressed that defining the start time and the time elapsed to infection based on only clinical parameters can be faulty. For these authors, histological assessment is much more precise, particularly when seeking to define whether the infection is acute or chronic (defined as those in which the infectious process leads to chronic inflammatory alterations in the tissue, especially bone necrosis).…”

“…[ 1 ] Osteomyelitis may occurs in a single type bone tissue, or spreads to the bone marrow, sclerotin, periosteum, and the surrounding soft tissues at the same time. [ 2 4 ] According to different etiologies, osteomyelitis can be commonly divided into the following 3 kinds [ 5 , 6 ] : hematogenous osteomyelitis, caused by the bacterium getting into the bone via blood circulation from lesions; traumatic osteomyelitis, caused by open fractures or skeleton surgeries and its secondary infections; and the osteomyelitis caused by infections spreading from the adjacent tissues to the skeleton. Morbidity rate of the disease is higher among men than among women, and the average onset age of the disease is 21.9 years and most patients are below 50 years old.…”

“…Zahlreiche Klassifikationen existieren. Aktuell wurde eine neue detaillierte Klassifikation publiziert, die auch Hinweise auf die erforderliche Therapie geben soll [3]. Denn die Behandlung einer Osteomyelitis ist komplex, langwierig und nicht zuletzt kostenintensiv [4,5].…”
