The Ongoing Struggle to Find a Gold Standard for PJI Diagnosis
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication of joint arthroplasty surgery that is difficult to both diagnose and treat. Misdiagnosing a prosthetic infection has terrible consequences for both the patient and healthcare system. No currently used diagnostic test fulfills the requirements to be considered a gold standard.

Laser Disinfection Acts as Biofilm‐Disrupter in Periprosthetic Joint Infection (PJI)
ABSTRACTInfections after joint arthroplasties represent a devastating and progressively escalating complication with increased morbidity and mortality. The eradication of biofilms from infected implants is still an unsolved challenge. The erbium‐doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Er:YAG) laser, which delivers high‐energy light for rapid tissue ablation ...
