Use of antibiotic-loaded cement in total knee arthroplasty.
Bone cement has the capacity to release antibiotic molecules if any antibiotic is included in it, and these elution properties are improved as cement porosity is increased. In vitro studies have shown high local antibiotic concentration for many hours or few days after its use. Antibiotic loaded bone cement (ALBC) is helpful when treating an infection in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) revision s...
متن کاملArtificial Fusion of Infected Total Knee Arthroplasty Using a Flexible Intramedullary Rod Bundle and an Antibiotic-Loaded Cement Spacer
Multiple total knee arthroplasty (TKA) failure resulting from a recurrent infection is a challenging problem. Knee arthrodesis is one treatment option that normally involves the application of an external fixator, plate fixation, and intramedullary nailing. However, these approaches are not always successful, and a reinfection is a risk, particularly in older, medically compromised patients. Th...
متن کاملTwo-stage revision of infected total knee arthroplasty using an antibiotic-impregnated static cement-spacer.
BACKGROUND Static antibiotic-impregnated cement spacers have been used widely to treat chronically infected total knee arthroplasties with a high success result. However, difficulty in surgical exposure during revision has been encountered. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical results of two-stage reimplantation of an infected total knee arthroplasty using a static antibiotic-...

متن کاملProspective study of the treatment of infected hip arthroplasties with or without the use of an antibiotic-loaded cement spacer.
PURPOSE Our purpose was to compare 2 methods of treatment of chronic infection in hip arthroplasties--with or without an antibiotic-loaded cement spacer. METHODS In a prospective study, we treated 68 infected hip arthroplasties with discharging sinuses and bone loss, comparing 30 patients treated in 2 stages without the use of a spacer (control group) and 38 patients treated with a vancomycin...
