Lyon Prosthetic Joint Infection Retrospective Cohort Study
Lyon Prosthetic Joint Infection Retrospective Cohort Study
Bone and joint infections (BJI), although infrequent (prevalence of 70 per 100,000 in France), have a significant economic and clinical impact. Between 2008 and 2013, the prevalence of BJI increased and infections involving joint prosthesis (PJI) represent a third of BJI in France. They are most often post-operative and more expensive than native IOAs.
This study aims to describe PJI and understand the failure mechanisms of PJI in order to improve their management.
