Salmonella species can be rarely isolated from periprosthetic joint infections, however when present, are usually part of a severe septic clinical picture.
Two patients presented with late infected hip replacements to our institution. The first patient with multiple comorbidities had a confirmed Salmonella Enteridis infection with an abscess in the groin, with loosening of both components. He underwent a successful one stage cemented revision hip replacement, followed by 6 weeks of antibiotic therapy (ciprofloxacin). He had no recurrence or complications. The second patient was admitted in a septic condition with ARDS to the Intensive Care Unit 7 years following an uncemented total hip replacement. From an ultrasound guided hip aspirate Salmonella cholerae-suis was isolated. He underwent a successful a two-stage revision hip replacement.
Successful treatment of such potentially life threatening infections is achievable using modern orthopaedic techniques and close collaboration with the infectious diseases specialists.
虽然来自假体周围关节感染的沙门氏菌属菌株非常少见,但当它们出现时,通常是严重脓毒症临床症状的一部分。
两名患者因晚期感染的髋关节置换术而转入我院。第一位合并多种合并症的患者经证实为肠炎沙门氏菌感染,腹股沟脓肿形成,两个部件均松动。他成功地进行了一期水泥固定翻修髋关节置换术,随后接受了 6 周的抗生素治疗(环丙沙星)。他没有复发或并发症。第二位患者在无骨水泥全髋关节置换术后 7 年因急性呼吸窘迫综合征(ARDS)入住重症监护病房,处于脓毒症状态。从超声引导的髋关节抽吸物中分离出霍乱弧菌。他成功地进行了两期翻修髋关节置换术。
采用现代骨科技术并与传染病专家密切合作,可成功治疗此类危及生命的感染。
