Even during the time of Hippocrates, Galen and their colleagues recognized
mediastinal affections. However, they were not considered with the surgical
treatment. First progress in the treatment options of this severe disease, still
denoted as 'terra incognita', over to today's gold standard are pictured. The
mediastinitis-registry which was founded by the German Society for Thoracic and
Cardiovascular Surgery (DGTHG) in 2011 and the recent establishment of the study
group to adopt a guideline 'diagnosis and therapy of postoperative
mediastinitis/sternal osteomyelitis following cardiac surgery' are attempts to a
standardization of the treatment. Substantial advancement in the treatment of
postoperative mediastinitis could be achieved in the past. The mortality dropped
as low as less than 10%. With these implementations more benefit for the
patients' outcome can be expected.
