Characteristics and management of periprosthetic joint infections caused by rapidly growing mycobacteria: a retrospective study and a review of the literature
Abstract Background n = 6). The isolated RGM species included Mycobacterium abscessus (three cases), M. fortuitum (three cases), and one case each of M. immunogenum and M. mageritense. Surgical debridement was performed in all cases, with six patients undergoing two-stage revision and two patients requiring amputation. Combination antimicrobial therapy was administered based on antimicrobial susceptibility testing, and the median duration of treatment was 7.5 months. Adverse events related to therapy occurred in 75 % of cases. No relapses were observed during the median follow-up period of 39.6 months. Conclusions: PJI caused by RGM is a rare complication of total joint arthroplasty. Surgical debridement and combination antimicrobial therapy are the mainstays of treatment. Although clinical cure rates are high, amputation may be required in severe cases.
