2025年3月20日 · bilateral TKA resection arthroplasty followed by 6 weeks of antibiotics and bilateral reimplantation has excellent results at 2-year follow-up early reimplantation within 2 weeks has 35% success rate

Peri-prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a significant complication following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Early identification and management are essential to prevent severe morbidity and mortality in these patients.

Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a significant burden in health care. Diagnosis and proper management are challenging. A standardised procedure for the diagnostic workup and surgical management provides clear benefits in outcome.

2023年1月18日 · Arthroplasty-associated infection, or periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), is a rare disease and is clinically distinct from native bone or joint infection. PJI...

2012年10月6日 · They include evidence-based and opinion-based recommendations for the diagnosis and management of patients with PJI treated with debridement and retention of the prosthesis, resection arthroplasty with or without subsequent staged reimplantation, 1-stage reimplantation, and amputation.

Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Two-stage revision has traditionally been considered the gold standard of treatment for established infection, but increasing evidence is emerging in support of one-stage exchange for selected patients.

Introduction: Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is the most serious and feared complication in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and can have catastrophic consequences. The number of total knee arthroplasties is increasing, so infections could also be greater in the future.

2025年3月14日 · 201 patients with PJI after TKA and 351 arTKA were analyzed to indicate the best cut-off value, and diagnostic accuracy of CRP and ESR. The best threshold in relation to operated knee joint was 9.6 mg/L. Sensitivity was 86.1% and specificity was 92.3%. For ESR the best threshold was calculated at 29 mm/h.

Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is one of the most feared and challenging complications following total knee arthroplasty. We provide a detailed description of our current understanding regarding the management of PJI of the knee, including diagnostic aids, pre-operative planning, surgical treatment, and outcome.

One of the most devastating complications of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). Although many complications associated with TKA have decreased over time, the trends associated with PJI are less clear. Thus, the purpose of this study is to determine the incidence and risk factors for PJI after primary TKA.
