Abstract Purpose Data on the reliability of point‐of‐care (POC) tests for the rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) using synovial fluid (SF) D‐dimer (DD), interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and procalcitonin (PCT) are limited. This study aimed to address this issue by evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of POC tests for SF DD, IL‐6 and PCT in ...

Successful identification of pathogens by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based electron spray ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ESI-TOF-MS) in culture-negative periprosthetic joint infection. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection poses many challenges, one of which is the difficulty of isolating the infecting organism. Recently, a sophisticated modality (the Ibis Biosciences T5000 biosensor system) has been introduced ...

Abstract Purpose The presence of a sinus tract in chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) has traditionally been considered a contraindication to single‐stage total knee arthroplasty (TKA) revision. However, an increasing number of surgeons are now performing single‐stage revisions in this context, despite limited comparative data.

Abnormal stress in the proximal tibia modifies the bone mineral density distribution pattern, and drilling in the sclerotic region during total knee arthroplasty is correlated with enhanced prosthesis stability. ABSTRACT Objective In patients with varus deformity of the knee, the redistribution of the subchondral bone mineral density (BMD) of the tibia

The Preoperative Microbial Detection is No Prerequisite for the Indication of Septic Revision in Cases of Suspected Periprosthetic Joint Infection [PDF]
Aim of this study. Periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) require a special antimicrobial regimen, fundamentally different from an aseptic treatment, making a correct preoperative diagnosis essential.

Culture-negative periprosthetic joint infections
Culture-negative periprosthetic joint infections (CN-PJI) pose a significant challenge in terms of diagnosis and management. The reported incidence of CN-PJI is reported to be between 7% and 15%. Fungi and mycobacterium are thought to be responsible for over 85% of such cases with more fastidious bacteria accounting for the rest.
