Abstract

Seven revisions of total knee replacement due to infection were conducted between 2007 and 2010 at Hospital de San José de Bogotá DC using the prosthesis re-sterilization technique. Three patients undertook a second surgical stage as definite treatment, infection eradication was achieved in all and functional results were good according to the Knee Society Score in two of the patients. Of patients not included, three still have the spacer and a second stage arthrodesis had to be conducted in one due to persistent infection. The re sterilization of prosthesis components technique and  its use as an articulating spacer is herein presented as a management alternative to effectively treat infection in total knee prosthesis.
