Zusammenfassung

Die erweiterte Klassifikation der periprothetischen Membran („synovial-like interface membrane“, SLIM) umfasst die Gesamtheit der pathologischen Veränderungen, die als Folge der endoprothetischen Versorgung großer Gelenke auftreten können und zu einer Reduktion der Prothesenstandzeit führen. Hierzu gehören die etablierte Konsensusklassifikation der SLIM, mit der sich die aseptische und septische Prothesenlockerung in 4 histologische Typen einteilen lassen, sowie histopathologische Kriterien für weitere Pathologien: Endoprothesen-assoziierte Arthrofibrose, immunologische/allergische Befunde und ossäre Pathologien. Diese Erweiterung stellt eine Grundlage für die histopathologische Diagnostik des gesamten Spektrums von Gelenkendoprothesen-assoziierten Erkrankungen dar und eignet sich als Basis für eine standardisierte Diagnostik und ätiologische Abklärung des Endoprothesenversagens und auch als Datenstandard für Endoprothesenregister, insbesondere für Register, die auf Routinedaten basieren (z. B. Deutsches Endoprothesenregister).

Abstract

The revised classification of the periprosthetic membrane (synovial-like interface membrane SLIM) encompasses all pathological alterations which can occur as a result of endoprosthetic replacement of major joints and lead to a reduction in durability of prostheses. This also includes the established consensus classification of SLIM by which aseptic and septic prosthetic loosening can be subdivided into four histological types and histopathological criteria for additional pathologies: endoprosthesis-associated arthrofibrosis, immunological/allergic alterations and osseous pathologies. This revision represents the foundation for the histopathological diagnostics of the total spectrum of diseases associated with joint prostheses, is a suitable basis for a standardized diagnostic procedure and etiological clarification of endoprosthesis failure and also as a data standard for endprosthesis registers, in particular for registers based on routine data (e.g. German endoprosthesis register).
