Abstrakt: Objective: Studies on surgical site infection (SSI) in adult neurosurgery have presented all subtypes of SSIs as the general 'SSI'. Given that SSIs constitute a broad range of infections, we hypothesized that clinical outcomes and management vary based on SSI subtype.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of all neurosurgical SSI from 2012-2019 was conducted at a tertiary care institution. SSI subtypes were categorized as deep and superficial incisional SSI, brain, dural or spinal abscesses, meningitis or ventriculitis, and osteomyelitis.
Results: 9620 craniotomy, shunt, and fusion procedures were studied. 147 procedures (1.5%) resulted in postoperative SSI. 87 (59.2%) of these were associated with craniotomy, 36 (24.5%) with spinal fusion, and 24 (16.3%) with ventricular shunting. Compared with superficial incisional primary SSI, rates of reoperation to treat SSI were highest for deep incisional primary SSI (91.2% vs 38.9% for superficial, p  < 0.001) and second-highest for intracranial SSI (90.9% vs 38.9%, p  = 0.0001). Postoperative meningitis was associated with the highest mortality rate (14.9%). Compared with superficial incisional SSI, the rate of readmission for intracranial SSI was highest (57.6% vs 16.7%, p  = 0.022).
Conclusion: Deep incisional and organ space SSI demonstrate a greater association with morbidity relative to superficial incisional SSI. Future studies should assess subtypes of SSI given these differences.
