Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2004
The diagnosis of septic implant failure can be difficult to make, yet is imperative for optimal patient outcomes in revision total hip arthroplasty. In most cases, a thorough history and physical examination combined with preoperative laboratory tests and an intraoperative frozen section are sufficient to differentiate septic from aseptic failure.

DIAGNOSIS OF PERIPROSTHETIC INFECTION

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume, 2006
Periprosthetic infections are rare, but there is evidence to suggest that their frequency may be underestimated. No single laboratory test has perfect sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing infection. Most tests have better specificity when they are performed for patients in whom infection is suspected clinically rather than when they are used as ...

Periprosthetic Fractures of the Hip

Acta chirurgiae orthopaedicae et traumatologiae Cechoslovaca, 2009
It is the aim of our study to present the results of our way of treatment of the periprosthetic fractures, with the cemented as well as the cement-free stems.From 1.1.1988 until 31.3.2005 we operated 42 periprosthetic fractures of the hip in 41 patients. 31 of our patients were females, 10 of them males. In 22 cases we operated the right side, 18 times

Periprosthetic Infections

Journal of Urology, 1987
A retrospective review of all patients undergoing implantation of a penile prosthesis or an artificial urinary sphincter was done. A total of 15 infections occurred in 556 prosthesis recipients, for an infection rate of 2.7 per cent. More than 50 per cent of the infections were caused by staphylococcal organisms.
