Background
Microbiology
- Hip and knee
- Early (<3 months): Staphylococcus aureus (38%), aerobic Gram-negative bacilli (24%), coagulase-negative staphylococci (22%), Enterococcus species (10%), and Streptococcus species (4%), anaerobes including Cutibacterium acnes (3%), culture-negative (10%); 31% are polymicrobial
- Overall: Staphylococcus aureus (27%), coagulase-negative staphylococci (27%), aerobic Gram-negative bacilli (9%), Streptococcus species (8%), anaerobes including Cutibacterium acnes (4%), Enterococcus species (3%), culture-negative (14%); 15% are polymicrobial
- Shoulder: coagulase-negative staphylococci (42%), Cutibacterium acnes (24%), Staphylococcus aureus (18%), aerobic Gram-negative bacilli (10%), others, culture-negative (15%); polymicrobial in 16%
- Elbow: Staphylococcus aureus (42%), coagulase-negative staphylococci (41%), others, culture-negative (5%); polymicrobial in 3%
Epidemiology
- Complicates about 2% of arthroplasty
- 2% of hip and knee arthroplasties
- 1% of shoulder arthroplasties
Pathophysiology
- Bacteria grown on the prosthesis in a biofilm, making it resistant to medical management
Clinical Manifestations
- Most commonly occur within the 3 months after arthroplasty (early); 70% within the first two years
- Should be suspected when there is a sinus tract, persistent wound drainage, acute onset of pain, or chronic pain after a pain-free interval
Diagnosis
- Routine investigations should include ESR, CRP, plain film x-ray, diagnostic arthrocentesis, and blood cultures (if fever or other systemic symptom)
- If clinically stable, try to obtain arthrocentesis samples before antibiotics
- Other imaging should not be used routinely
- Diagnosis is made most definitively by histopathology of periprosthetic tissue biopsy, and supported by positive intraoperative tissue cultures
- Should take 3 to 6 intraoperative samples
- If clinically stable, try to obtain tissue cultures before starting antibiotics
- A definitive diagnosis of PJI requires any of the following:
- Sinus tract that communicates with the prosthesis
- Acute inflammation on histopathology of intraoperatic periprosthetic tissue sample
- Periprosthetic purulence without other cause
- Two or more intraoperative cultures with identical organism, though a single positive culture may be sufficient in some cases
- A diagnosis of PJI may still be possible if the above criteria are not met but clinical suspicion remains
Management
Surgical Therapy
- Ultimately the decision of whether and how to treat surgically rests with the orthopedic surgeon
- Options include:
- Debridement and retention
- One-stage replacement
- Two-stage replacement
- Antibiotic-impregnated cement is often used for the spacer
- Usually vancomycin 2 to 8 g per 40 g cement, or an aminoglycoside
- No clear guidelines for dosing
- No clear evidence of effectiveness, but recommended in all revisions for septic arthritis
- Releases over a period of two to three days
- Usually vancomycin 2 to 8 g per 40 g cement, or an aminoglycoside

Adjunctive Rifamycins
- Adjunctive rifampin 300 to 450 mg twice daily is usually added for staphylococcal infection where strong contraindications do not exist1
- Alternatively , can potentially use rifabutin 300 mg PO daily2
Chronic Suppressive Therapy
- Duration unclear; 3-12 months or lifelong
- In people in whom there is recurrence, it tends to recur within 4 months of discontinuing suppressive therapy

Intra-Articular Infusion
- Used in veterinary practice for decades, but only used experimentally in humans
- Intraoperatively insert two Hickman catheters into the intraarticular space
- Two catheters used to ensure that at least one will remain viable for the duration
- Vancomycin
- May precipitate local inflammatory response necessitating holding it for several days
