Streptococci are not an infrequent cause of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). Management by debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR) is thought to produce a good prognosis, but little known about the real likelihood success. A retrospective, observational, multicenter, international study was performed during 2003–2012. Eligible patients had streptococcal PJI that managed with DAIR. The primary endpoint failure, defined as death related infection, relapse/persistence or...
Aims The success rates of two-stage revision arthroplasty for infection have evolved since their early description. implementation internationally accepted outcome criteria led to the readjustment such rates. However, patients who do not undergo reimplantation are usually set aside from these calculations. aim this study was investigate outcomes when considering those reimplantation, and characteristics subgroup. Methods A retrospective cohort conducted. Patients with chronic hip or knee...
To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of daptomycin in treatment hip knee periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs).We completed a retrospective review all patients our institution (n=20) who were treated with for or PJI, over 36 month period from January 2008 until December 2010.Infection types included eight cases acute infections, nine chronic infection three positive intraoperative cultures. Methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus was most frequent microorganism...
Background Industrially preformed antibiotic-loaded cement spacers are useful to facilitate the second stage of two-stage exchange arthroplasty for infected THAs and TKAs. However, whether gentamicin alone or a combination antibiotics (such as vancomycin gentamicin) is more effective not known. Questions/purposes We therefore sought compare industrially prefabricated containing either with respect (1) infection control, (2) complications, (3) quality life, pain, patient satisfaction. Methods...
Bone nonunion in the pediatric population usually occurs context of highly unfavorable biological conditions. Recently, vascularized fibular periosteal flap has been reported as a very effective procedure for treating this condition. Even though tibial graft (VTPG) was described long ago and successfully employed one adult case, there no other report published on use technique. We VTPG, pedicled anterior vessels, treatment two complex bone case: recalcitrant supracondylar femoral...
Abstract Literature on the reconstruction of proximal femur in skeletally immature patients with use an epiphyseal transplant is scarce and variable results depending indication. We report successful outcomes using a modified vascularized fibular 4‐year‐old boy oncologic lesion. discuss advantages supplementing standard graft periosteal tissue. The (VFET) effective option epiphysis patients, owing to advantage restoring both joint function growth potential single surgical operation. 1...
Abstract Background Vascularized periosteal graft have demonstrated a tremendous bone healing capacity in children. The objective is to report outcomes on the use of vascularized tibial (VTPG) during reconstruction series children with complex problems. Patients and methods Cases were collected retrospectively since May 2013 2019, excluding cases congenital pseudarthrosis tibia. Mean age at surgery was 12.8 (range 11–18) years. Indications included treatment recalcitrant nonunion prevention...
Aims The aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence culture-negative periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) when adequate methods culture are used, and evaluate outcome in patients who were treated with antibiotics for a PJI compared those whom withheld. Methods A multicentre observational undertaken: 1,553 acute 1,556 chronic PJIs, diagnosed between 2013 2018, retrospectively analyzed. Culture-negative PJIs according Muskuloskeletal Infection Society (MSIS), International Consensus...
The vascularized fibular periosteal flap has been recently described and showed solid angio osteogenic features. We report the use of a free transplant in treatment El-Rosasy-Paley Type III congenital pseudarthrosis tibia 7-year-old boy, with prior unsuccessful surgery at age three. contralateral periosteum was used to replace two-thirds hamartomatous tibial periosteum. did not proceed debriding focus nor addressed recurvatum or revised previous rod. Consolidation achieved radiologically 3...
