In the News One-Stage Versus Two-Stage Exchange Arthroplasty for Periprosthetic Joint Infection
Landmark randomized controlled trial published in this month’s issue of the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery suggesting that 1-stage exchange protocols for prosthetic joint infection may be of similar efficacy to 2-stage protocols.This important research has major implications for patients who develop infections following hip and knee replacement surgery, and helps to shape the way myself and other surgeons will approach these cases moving forward!
