Increasing but levelling out risk of revision dueto infection after total hip arthroplasty: a studyon 108,854 primary THAs in the NorwegianArthroplasty Register from 2005 to 2019

Our study supports the findings of previous series where the most common reason for revision in complex primary knee arthroplasty was infection (Petrou 2004, Yang et al. 2014)

Methods: Thirty-seven thousand, three hundred and eighty-one total knee arthroplasties that were reported to the Norwegian Arthroplasty Register from 1994 to 2010 were used to

The aim of this study is to identify risk factors for surgical site infection (SSI) following primary hip arthroplasty, as well as to estimate the costs of such infection
