A 23-year-old woman was presented to the Emergency Unit with intracranial hypertension syndrome and blindness in her left eye which had started recently. A cranial native computed tomography scan and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with contrast examinations revealed a giant intracranial cystic lesion, extending into the left frontal lobe, which was compressing the optic chiasm and eroding the internal plate of the left frontal bone.

Aims: Debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR) remains one option for the treatment of acute periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) despite imperfect success rates. Intraosseous (IO) administration of vancomycin results in significantly increased local bone and tissue concentrations compared to systemic antibiotics alone. The purpose of this study was to evaluate if the addition of a single dose of IO regional antibiotics to our protocol at the time of DAIR would improve outcomes.

Objectives: To compare the intra-osseous temperature reached during bone drilling for dental implant placement using open versus closed static surgical guides and evaluate the influence of bone density, osteotomy drilling depth, and irrigation fluid temperature.

Material And Methods: 960 osteotomies were performed with 2 mm pilot drills in 16 solid rigid polyurethane foam blocks. Two main variables were considered: the guide type (open or closed guide) and bone density (hard (D1) or soft (D4).

Contemporary Strategies to Prevent Infection in Hip and Knee Arthroplasty.

Curr Rev Musculoskelet Med

August 2020

Division of Orthopaedic Surgery, University Hospital, London Health Sciences Centre, Western University, London, Ontario, N6A 5A5, Canada.

Purpose Of Review: Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) remains a serious concern in lower limb arthroplasty. Despite the significant consequences of PJI, the assessment of the safety and efficacy of preventative measures is challenging due to a low event rate. Notwithstanding, enormous efforts have been made in this arena, and prevention strategies continue to evolve.
