Abstract

BACKGROUND: Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) due to Salmonella sp. is rare. It is sometimes difficult to treat and need prolonged antibiotic treatment.

CASE REPORT: We reported a case of PJI of the hip in a 67-year-old female who received prior left total hip arthroplasty. Two-stage revision surgery with antibiotic-loaded cement spacer had been performed to the patient and successfully control the infection.

CONCLUSION: Although literature review showed that there has been no consensus for the treatment of Salmonella PJI, a two-stage revision procedure has been more commonly performed to control the infection by previous authors and might be the safest way to control Salmonella PJI recently.
