The aim of our study was to evaluate the outcome of acute prosthetic joint infections (PJIs)
due to gram-negative bacilli (GNB) treated without implant removal. Patients with an acute PJI …

Introduction The histology of periprosthetic tissue is a gold standard for the diagnosis of
periprosthetic joint infection. However, the specificity and sensitivity of histology has never been …

Objectives Early prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) are managed with debridement, implant
retention and antibiotics (DAIR). Our aim was to evaluate risk factors for failure after stopping …

Background: Appropriate interpretation of a frozen section has a relatively high specificity and
sensitivity for the diagnosis of infection when septic loosening of a prosthesis is suspected. …

Levofloxacin plus rifampicin (L+R) is the treatment of choice for acute staphylococcal
prosthetic joint infection (PJI) managed with debridement and implant retention (DAIR). Long …

One-stage and two-stage revision strategies are the two main options for treating established
chronic peri-prosthetic joint infection (PJI) of the hip; however, there is uncertainty …

Purposes To review patients with a hematogenous and early post-surgical prosthetic joint
infection (PJI) due to S. aureus treated with debridement and retention of the implant and to …

The objective of our study was to study which is the most accurate specimen for histological
diagnosis of prosthetic joint infections (pseudocapsule or interface membrane). This is a …

The aim of this study was to compare the prosthetic joint infection (PJI) rate after total joint
arthroplasty in two consecutive periods of treatment with different antibiotic prophylaxes: …

Background . There is no clinical trial analyzing the best moment to infuse an antibiotic during
knee arthroplasty performed during ischemia. We designed a single-center, randomized, …
