Initial Results of Managing Severe Bone Loss in Infected Total Joint Arthroplasty Using Customized Articulating Spacers
Journal of Arthroplasty, 06/18/09

Articulating antibiotic-impregnated spacers with intraoperative customization is the preferred treatment of cases of infected total joint arthroplasty even in the presence of bone loss.
