Department of Internal Medicine, Burnett School of Medicine at Texas Christian University (TCU) and Consultants in Cardiovascular Medicine and Science, Fort Worth, Texas.
Background: The adoption of leadless pacemakers (LPMs) is increasing, yet the impact of body mass index (BMI) on procedural outcomes remains underexplored.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to explore the impact of BMI on in-hospital outcomes for patients receiving LPM implantation.
Methods: Data from the National Inpatient Sample from 2018-2021 were analyzed for patients older than 18 years who underwent LPM implantation, with specific inclusion and exclusion criteria applied.
A Rare Case of Staphylococcus Caprae Periprosthetic Hip Infection with Unusual Clinical Presentation.

January 2025
Adult Reconstruction and Joint Replacement Service, Division of Sports Traumatology and Joint Surgery, Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS, Largo Agostino Gemelli 8, Roma, RM 00168, Italy.
Introduction: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) surgeries are rapidly increasing due to an aging population, leading to an increase in degenerative hip osteoarthritis. However, 1% of these patients go through prosthetic joint infection (PJI), which gives rise to implant failure with prolonged periods of patient incapacitation and higher mortality risk.
Case Report: In this article, we report an unusual case of a 62-year-old male who developed a PJI 7 months after a THA.
