    AbstractPeriprosthetic infections with problematic and multiresistant pathogens represent a great challenge for trauma surgeons, especially when repetitive surgical débridement combined with calculated i.v. antibiotic treatment does not lead to resolution of the infection. This can necessitate a deviation from state of the art treatment concepts, such as the additive implementation of a rifampicin-loaded polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) spacers.© 2021.
