Cohort studies reporting outcomes of both arthroscopic and open treatment for glenohumeral septic arthritis were included. A meta\u2010analysis comparing the primary outcome between using arthroscopy and arthrotomy for glenohumeral septic arthritis was not performed due to low level of evidence of included comparative studies. The primary outcome of interest in this study was reoperation or reinfection rates. Secondary outcomes analyzed included mortality rate, length of hospital stay, 30\u2010day all\u2010cause complications, cost, and functional outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Nine articles comprising 10,352 patients with glenohumeral septic arthritis were included, including 4250 patients in the arthroscopic treatment arm (mean age 63.2\u2009\u00b1\u200916.3\u2009years) and 6102 patients in the open treatment arm (mean age 60.9\u2009\u00b1\u200918.7\u2009years). Notably, reinfection rates showed considerable heterogeneity, particularly in the arthroscopic group, with reinfection rates ranging from 7.46% to 75.0% compared with the narrower range of 12.6% to 22.2% in the open treatment group. Thirty\u2010day all\u2010cause complication rates ranged from 15.7% to 47.5% in patients undergoing arthroscopic treatment versus 22.6% to 50.5% in patients undergoing open treatment. In the arthroscopic treatment group, mortality rates ranged from 2.09% to 4.76%, while mortality rates in the open treatment arm were between 3.47% and 7.0%.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Current evidence comparing arthroscopic versus open treatment of glenohumeral septic arthritis shows mixed results with substantial heterogeneity in reinfection rates.
