Background: Histopathology is one of the diagnostic criteria for prosthetic joint infection (PJI) proposed by all academic societies. The aim of this study was to compare histopathological and microbiological results from samples taken intraoperatively at the same site in patients with suspected or proven PJI.
Patients And Methods: We conducted a monocenter retrospective study including all patients having undergone surgery from 2007 to 2015 with suspected or proven PJI.
Objectives: Enterobacter cloacae prosthetic joint infections (PJI) are rare and poorly documented.
Patients And Methods: We conducted a retrospective and monocentric study in an orthopedic unit supporting complex bone and joint infections. Between 2012 and 2016 we collected background, clinical, biological, and microbiological data from 20 patients presenting with prosthetic joint infection and positive for E.
The objective was to evaluate the distribution of coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) involved in periprosthetic-joint infections (PJIs) and to describe their susceptibility profile to antibiotics. We conducted a multicentre retrospective study in France, including 215 CNS PJIs between 2011 and 2015. CNS PJIs involved knees in 54% of the cases, hips in 39%, other sites in 7%.

Methods: A retrospective multicentre study including all consecutive cases of S. lugdunensis PJI (2000-2014) was performed.
