Mechanical strength of antibiotic-loaded PMMA spacers in two-stage revision surgery

BACKGROUND: Antibiotic-loaded polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement spacers provide high local antibiotic concentrations and patient mobility during the interim period of two-stage revision for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). This study compares mechanical characteristics of six dual antib...
