Detection of bacteria with molecular methods in prosthetic joint infection: sonication fluid better than periprosthetic tissue
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The correct diagnosis of prosthetic joint infection (PJI) can be difficult because bacteria form a biofilm on the surface of the implant. The sensitivity of culture from sonication fluid is better than that from periprosthetic tissue, but no comparison studies using molecular...
