    AbstractImplant-related infections represent a relatively common and significant challenge in the surgical management of musculoskeletal trauma patients. The third United Kingdom Periprosthetic Joint Infection (UK PJI) Meeting convened in Glasgow on 1 April 2022, and brought together over 180 delegates, representing orthopaedics, infectious diseases, microbiology, plastic surgery, anaesthetics, and allied health professions, including pharmacy and specialist nurses. The meeting comprised a plenary session for all delegates, and separate breakout sessions for fracture-related infection (FRI) and arthroplasty. The UK PJI working group prepared consensus statements in advance of each session, based upon topics that were discussed at previous meetings, and delegates engaged in an anonymous electronic voting process. This article presents the findings of the FRI session, and examines each consensus topic within the context of the contemporary literature.Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
