Overview
Septic arthritis is a very much important consideration in adults presenting with acute monoarticular arthritis.
Defintion
Historical perspective
Pathophysiology
Septic arthritis most commonly develop as a result of hematogenous spreading bacteria into the vascular synovial membrane.[1]
Risk Factors
Recent history of joint aspiration or local corticosteroid joint injection.[2][1]
