Kurzfassung:
Local injection of a bacteriophages mix during debridement, antibiotics and implant retention (“DAIR”) was performed to treat a relapsing Staphylococcus aureus chronic prosthetic joint infection (PJI). This salvage treatment was safe and associated with a clinical success. Scientific evaluation of the potential clinical benefit of bacteriophages as antibiofilm treatment in PJI is now feasible and required.
