It is standard practice to send samples for microbiological and histological analysis during revision surgery in suspected prosthetic joint infection. The aim of our study was to analyse the utility of histology in decision making in these patients. We performed a retrospective review of all revision hip arthroplasty patients between from September 2013 and August 2016 from the hospital database. We analysed the results of aspiration, culture and sensitivity, histology from intra-operative samples and inflammatory markers. Diagnostic utility statistics were performed.Introduction
