Primary Ankle Arthrodesis for Severely Comminuted Tibial Pilon Fractures.

abstract：:Total hip arthroplasty (THA) infection imposes a significant burden on the patient and the health care system. Two-stage revision with interval placement of an antibiotic-cement spacer is the standard of care for chronic periprosthetic infections. This treatment allows for the direct delivery of antibiotics to the inf...
