COMPLICATIONS - INFECTION| VOLUME 36, ISSUE 5, P1758-1764, MAY 01, 2021
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is one of the most feared complications of total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Although commonly the result of colonization by Staphylococcal species, a growing number of cases of PJI with fungal pathogens have been reported within the last decade. Although standard treatment with two-stage exchange mirrors that of bacterial PJI, the variability in virulence between fungal species makes for an unpredictable and challenging treatment course.

BASIC SCIENCE| VOLUME 36, ISSUE 5, P1799-1803, MAY 01, 2021
Distortion is an intrinsic phenomenon associated with image-intensified fluoroscopy that is both poorly understood and infrequently appreciated by orthopedic surgeons. Little information exists regarding its potential influence on intraoperative parameters during orthopedic surgery, let alone during direct anterior (DA) total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of this study was to quantify the amount of potential error caused by fluoroscopic distortion during DA THA.

SYSTEMATIC REVIEW & META-ANALYSES| VOLUME 36, ISSUE 5, P1823-1831, MAY 01, 2021
Predictive tools are useful adjuncts in surgical planning. They help guide patient selection, candidacy for inpatient vs outpatient surgery, and discharge disposition as well as predict the probability of readmissions and complications after total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Surgeons may find it difficult due to significant variation among risk calculators to decide which tool is best suited for a specific patient for optimal decision-based care. Our aim is to perform a systematic review of the literature to determine the existing post-TJA readmission calculators and compare the specific elements that comprise their formula. Second, we intend to evaluate the pros and cons of each calculator.
