Abstract
Patients with infection caused by Staphylococcus aureus or coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species may require additional operations to treat the infection. Although effective in some cases, component exchange presents an increased risk for reinfection. A 1-stage CRR procedure had similar reinfection rates as a 2-stage procedure in our patient population.
