Abstract

Orthopedic device infections in children are complicated and diverse, often affecting patients with concomitant conditions such as neuromuscular disorders or solid tumors. As such, diagnosis and management of these infections is personalized, nuanced, and specialized. In this review, we focus on infections related to spinal hardware and prostheses inserted during limb-salvage surgery for bone tumors. Important differences from adults in patient characteristics, epidemiology, and management requirements make it important to understand specific aspects of these infections in pediatric patients to optimize patient care and outcomes.

儿童骨科器械感染是复杂和多样的，通常影响伴有神经肌肉疾病或实体瘤等并发症的患者。因此，这些感染的诊断和管理是个性化的、细致入微的和专业化的。在这篇综述中，我们主要关注骨肿瘤保肢手术中与脊柱硬体和植入假体相关的感染。与成人在患者特征、流行病学和管理要求方面的重要差异使得了解儿科患者这些感染的具体方面以优化患者护理和结果变得非常重要。
