Objective

The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical results of treatment for patients with periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in our department.

Patients and Methods

Between April 2004 and March 2014, 9 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and 6 patients with osteoarthritis (OA) were identified as PJI following TKA and treated in our hospital. We investigated retrospectively the data of each patient, including the clinical background and the peri-operative data as well as the outcome at final follow-up.
