Orthopaedic surgical infections, in Denmark, are managed heterogeneously, both within the orthopaedic surgical and the clinical microbiological specialty. More uniform guidelines for sampling and clinical microbiological diagnostics for suspected orthopedic surgical infections would be appropriate. The purpose of this review is therefore to initiate a process aiming for consensus on sampling methods of tissue materials and fluids and clinical microbiological sample handling.

In Brazil, Visceral Leishmaniases is caused by Leishmania infantum, and domestic dogs are the main reservoirs in its urban transmission cycle. As an alternative to euthanizing dogs, miltefosine has been used to treat canine visceral leishmaniasis since 2016. In this study, we have assessed the efficacy of miltefosine for treating canine visceral leishmaniasis in a new endemic area through follow-up of naturally infected dogs was evaluated.
