Abstract
C avidum is a rare PJI agent occurring in a particular subpopulation. Joint aspiration is the key diagnostic tool. Our results suggest that PJI risk factors include obesity, primary hip arthroplasty, and anterior surgical approach. Efforts to prevent these infections in high-risk patients should be developed.
