Frontiers in the Management of Orthopaedic Periprosthetic Joint Infection

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 44, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication of total joint arthroplasty (TJA), one of the most frequently performed surgical procedures worldwide. Management of acute PJI commonly involves debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR), though failure rates remain high due to antibiotic‐tolerant biofilms. Chronic
