摘要
Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a rare but serious and catastrophic complication of total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Culturing the causative microorganism can be difficult especially in the setting of biofilm formation or antibiotic exposure. In culture-positive cases, Staphylococcal species continue to be the most common organisms isolated. In this review, we will discuss the potential role of sonication to increase the yield of periprosthetic cultures as well as new treatment options for gram-positive organisms. As the percentage of patients who undergo TJA continues to grow, we must continue to optimize our diagnostic and treatment options of PJIs.
