Overview
Septic arthritis broadly classified based on the etiology and based on the clinical presentation.
Classification
Classification Based on the Etiology
Septic arthritis can be classified into 2 types based on the etiology:[1]
- Gonococcal septic arthritis
- Non-gonococcal septic arthritis
Classification Based on the Presentation
Septic arthritis can be classified into 2 types based on the involvement of number of joints involved during presentation:[2]
- Mono articular septic arthritis (MASA)
- Most common type of presentation
- Poly articular septic arthritis (PASA)
- Less common presentation (~15% of total septic arthritis cases)
- commonly caused by staphylococcus aureus and other non gonococcal infections such as streptococci and gram negative bacteria.
