Adverse Soft-Tissue Reaction After Ceramic-On-Ceramic Bearing Fracture Mimicking a Periprosthetic Joint Infection

Arthroplasty Today, 2022
Prosthetic failure secondary to bearing fracture remains a potential complication in ceramic-on-ceramic total hip arthroplasty. We report the unusual presentation of a ceramic component fracture of a total hip arthroplasty performed 17 years ago that ...

Periprosthetic joint infections

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology, 2018
Periprosthetic Joint Infections (PJI) are on of the most challenging and scaring complications in orthopaedic surgery. In this topic review we review all the news about the diagnosis and treatment after the 2018 consensus in order to refresh the current concepts.

Lower synovial leucocyte count and polymorphonuclear percentage reliably differentiate periprosthetic joint infection after unicompartmental knee arthroplasty

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to determine diagnostic thresholds for synovial fluid leucocyte count and polymorphonuclear (PMN) percentage to identify the diagnosis periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in patients with failed unicompartmental knee arthroplasties (UKAs).

Time‐dependent wound management protocol prevents periprosthetic joint infection in total knee arthroplasty with persistent drainage

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the success rate of a standardised protocol for managing persistent wound drainage following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Methods A prospective observational study was conducted at four institutions between January and June 2022 across primary and revision TKAs.

Risk factors predicting the reinfection in periprosthetic joint infection with sinus tracts following prosthesis removal and antibiotic bone cement spacer implantation: a case control study

BMC Infectious Diseases
Background The sinus tract has been demonstrated to be a factor affecting the efficacy of periprosthetic joint infection. Reinfection after prosthesis removal and antibiotic bone cement spacer implantation is one of the reasons for the failure of two ...

Unrestricted kinematic alignment in varus total knee arthroplasty outperforms mechanical alignment in CPAK I phenotype, but yields comparable outcomes in CPAK IV: A retrospective analysis from the FP‐UCBM Knee Study Group

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare clinical outcomes in varus‐aligned patients undergoing cruciate‐retaining total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with mechanical alignment (MA) versus unrestricted kinematic alignment (KA). The hypothesis was that KA would yield superior outcomes, and that preserving joint line obliquity—regardless of alignment technique—would be ...

Periprosthetic joint infection: Current concept

Indian Journal of Orthopaedics, 2013
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is one of the most devastating and costly complications following total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Diagnosis and management of PJI is challenging for surgeons. There is no "gold standard" for diagnosis of PJI, making distinction between septic and aseptic failures difficult.

Comparative diagnostic accuracy of next‐generation sequencing in different specimen types for periprosthetic joint infection: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
This meta‐analysis suggests that NGS of sonicate fluid demonstrates higher sensitivity compared to NGS of synovial fluid or periprosthetic tissue, while maintaining strong specificity, making it valuable for detecting infection. Periprosthetic tissue NGS demonstrated exceptional specificity and acceptable sensitivity, making it valuable for confirming ...

Periprosthetic joint infections

, 2023
Arthroplasty surgery, especially total hip arthroplasty (THA), is considered amongst the most successful surgical procedures of all time. However, complications may occur that are disabling for patients. Of all complications, periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is one of the worst, requiring additional surgery and prolonged periods of antibiotic ...
