Genotypic and phenotypic characterization of <i>Enterococcus faecalis</i> isolates from periprosthetic joint infections

2024-02-06

Abstract excerpt

Over 2.5 million prosthetic joint implantation surgeries occur annually in the United States. Periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs), though occurring in only 1-2% of patients receiving replacement joints, are challenging to diagnose and treat and are associated with significant morbidity. The Gram-positive bacterium Enterococcus faecalis , which can be highly antibiotic resistant and is a robust biofilm producer...
