Aim

To retrospectively investigate the clinical outcome after surgical, single-stage treatment of orthopaedic infections using antibiotics delivered locally by a calcium sulphate/hydroxyapatite biocomposite.

Method

In order to identify the patients, we retrospectively searched several patient associated hospital-based databases using free text search with the term “Cerament” between November 2015 and November 2018.

58 cases with confirmed osteomyelitis and in which the bone substitute loaded with Gentamicin and/or Vancomycin had been used were identified and further evaluated.
