dc.description.abstractProsthetic joint infection usually requires combined medical and surgical therapy. While revision surgery is widely considered to be the gold standard surgical procedure, debridement, antibiotics and irrigation with implant retention is a very appealing alternative. There is however great controversy regarding its real worth with success rates ranging from 0% to over 90%. A number of different patient and host related variables as well as specific aspects of surgical and medical management have been described as relevant for the final outcome. Along this paper, the authors will provide the readers with a critical narrative review of the currently available literature while trying to provide concise and practical treatment recommendations regarding adequate patient selection criteria, proper surgical technique and optimal antibiotic therapy.pt_PT
