        Introduction: in this second part, the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of chronic and deep space infections of the hand, which are most commonly encountered in clinical practice, are discussed. Development: dozens of causative microorganisms have been described, and hundreds of diverse case reports involving bacteria, viruses and mycobacteria are available in the literature. This review article synthesizes the most relevant clinical presentations and pathogens that orthopaedic and hand surgeons encounter in daily practice. Conclusion: reviewing all possible causes of chronic hand infections is beyond the scope of this document. If a broader understanding is required, an extensive literature review of infectious diseases and specialized hand surgery must be performed.
        Introducción: en esta segunda parte, se exponen la fisiopatología, el diagnóstico y el tratamiento de las infecciones crónicas y de compartimentos profundos de la mano encontradas con mayor frecuencia en la práctica clínica. Desarrollo: en la literatura se han descrito decenas de microorganismos causales y cientos de reportes de casos que involucran bacterias, virus y micobacterias. Este artículo de revisión sintetiza las presentaciones clínicas y los patógenos más relevantes a los que se enfrentan cotidianamente los cirujanos ortopedistas y de mano. Conclusión: revisar la totalidad de las causas posibles de infecciones crónicas en la mano, excede el alcance de este documento; por lo tanto, si el lector requiere profundizar en el tema, se sugiere realizar una revisión bibliográfica extensiva en enfermedades infecciosas y cirugía especializada de mano.
