The Alpha-Defensin Test for Diagnosing Periprosthetic Joint Infection in the Setting of an Adverse Local Tissue Reaction Secondary to a Failed Metal-on-Metal Bearing or Corrosion at the Head-Neck Junction
چکیده انگلیسی
Similar to synovial fluid white blood cell count, alpha-defensin testing is prone to false-positive results in the setting of ALTR. Therefore, we recommend an aggressive approach to ruling out PJI including routine aspiration of all hips with ALTR before revision surgery to integrate the synovial fluid blood cell count, differential, cultures and adjunctive tests like alpha-defensin to allow for accurate diagnosis preoperatively.
