Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication and interest exists in finding lower cost alternatives to current management strategies. Current strategies include a two-stage revision with placement of an antibiotic spacer and delayed placement of a new arthroplasty implant. This study aimed to show that biofilm residue can be reliably eradicated on infected implants, safely allowing re-implantation in a spacer. Strains of Background
