Arthroscopic Treatment Shows Noninferior Outcomes to Open Treatment for Native Glenohumeral Septic Arthritis: A Systematic Review

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to evaluate the efficacy of arthroscopic treatment compared to open treatment for native glenohumeral septic arthritis, specifically examining reinfection rates and postoperative functional outcomes. Their systematic review of nine studies involving over 10,000 patients revealed mixed results, with significant variability in reinfection rates and complications between the two treatment methods, ultimately preventing definitive conclusions about which approach is superior.
