Implant retention in a rabbit model of fracture-related infection: similar infection clearance but impaired bone healing in delayed compared to early infection

Implant retention in a rabbit model of fracture-related infection: similar infection clearance but impaired bone healing in delayed compared to early infection

Aims: Fracture-related infection (FRI) is commonly classified based on the time of onset of symptoms. Early infections (< two weeks) are treated with debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR). For late infections (> ten weeks), guidelines recommend implant removal due to tolerant...
