Surgical Clinics of North America, 2014
Prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) are often managed by surgical treatment of irrigation and debridement (I&D) in acute infections, and 1-stage or 2-stage exchange arthroplasty in chronic infections. Patients who undergo I&D have had lower success rates compared with patients who undergo exchange arthroplasty, especially if resistant organisms are ...

Periprosthetic joint infection
The Lancet, 2016Periprosthetic joint infections are a devastating complication after arthroplasty and are associated with substantial patient morbidity. More than 25% of revisions are attributed to these infections, which are expected to increase. The increased prevalence of obesity, diabetes, and other comorbidities are some of the reasons for this increase ...

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 2005
Success in the treatment of infected orthopedic prosthesis requires the best surgical approach in combination with prolonged optimum targeted antimicrobial therapy. In choosing the surgical option, one must consider the type of infection, condition of the bone stock and soft tissue, the virulence and antimicrobial susceptibility of the pathogen, the ...

Current Infectious Disease Reports, 1999
Total joint replacement has been one of the most remarkable successes of modern medical technology. Once John Charnley had solved the problems of implant design, choice of materials, implant fixation, and infection (initial rates of infection were approximately 10%), the way was clear for the widespread use of this valuable treatment, which is highly ...

Expert Review of Anti-infective Therapy, 2005
Infection is the second most common cause of prosthetic joint failure. Signs and symptoms associated with prosthetic joint infection may develop weeks or even years following arthroplasty. While some patients with prosthetic joint infection present with findings consistent with acute septic arthritis, many present with pain alone.

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1978
A retrospective study of tuberculosis infection of joints over a 10 year period has identified 21 documented cases. The patients were, for the most part, of rural, middle-class background and usually in the fifth to seventh decade. Diagnosis was commonly missed with the exception of spinal lesions.

Medicine, 2002
Abstract All micro-organisms can cause joint and bone disease, but bacterial arthritis is more common and the most potentially dangerous and destructive. Micro-organisms can cause disease by active infection, reaction to the organism and inflammation induced by auto activation of the immune system.

Of Bugs and Joints: The Relationship Between Infection and Joints
Reumatología Clínica (English Edition), 2013The association between microbes and joints has existed since antiquity, and remains complex. Diagnosis is often times difficult to determine despite highly suspicious clinical characteristics for the presence of an underlying infection. Over the several past decades, considerable advances have occurred in diagnostic methodologies and therapy. However,

Diagnosis of Periprosthetic Joint Infection
The Journal of Arthroplasty, 2014Diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), one of the major causes of failure of total joint arthroplasty, continues to pose a challenge. One of the major reasons is the lack of a ''gold standard'' to distinguish between septic and aseptic failure.
