A rare case of ankle peri-implant infection by multi drug resistant Chryseobacterium indologenes.
Acta Orthop Belg
December 2024
Chryseobacterium indologenes is a rare human pathogen which is nowadays considered an emerging fearsome organism because of its upcoming antibiotic resistance. We present a quite unique case of a multi drug resistant C. indologenes surgical wound infection in a patient submitted to cannulated screw fixation of a displaced medial malleolus fracture.

This case report presents a complex and challenging scenario of recurrent () bacteremia and tricuspid valve endocarditis in a 77-year-old male patient with multiple comorbidities and indwelling medical devices. The patient's medical history was significant for T4 paraplegia, neurogenic bladder requiring a chronic indwelling suprapubic catheter, heart block status post-permanent pacemaker placement, type 2 diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, and chronic sacral wounds. The case highlights the difficulties in managing antibiotic-resistant infections, particularly in patients with implantable devices and chronic wounds.

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) involves complex decisions regarding perioperative anticoagulation, with continuation or interruption of oral anticoagulation presenting distinct risks and benefits. This systematic review and meta-analysis compared the clinical outcomes of these two strategies during TAVI. We conducted a comprehensive literature search across multiple electronic databases, including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science, from inception to November 2024.

Islet transplantation and more recently stem cell-derived islets were shown to successfully re-establish glycemic control in people with type 1 diabetes under immunosuppression. These results were achieved through intraportal infusion which leads to early graft losses and limits the capacity to contain and retrieve implanted cells in case of adverse events. Extra-hepatic sites and encapsulation devices have been developed to address these challenges and potentially create an immunoprotective or immune-privileged environment.

Objective: Reverse obliquity intertrochanteric fracture is an unstable type of fracture. Current guidelines recommend intramedullary fixation, but there are still complications such as screw removal, hip varus, nail withdrawal, and nail fracture. The objective of this study was to use finite element analysis to compare the biomechanical properties of the novel proximal femoral bionic nail (PFBN), proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA), and combined compression interlocking intramedullary nail (InterTan) in the treatment of reverse obliquity intertrochanteric fractures (AO/OTA 31-A3.
