Unrelenting Infection of Implanted Prosthetic Hip Joint by Corynebacterium striatum.
Curēus 2024 Februrary
Non-diphtherial Corynebacterial (NDC) species, while previously considered as culture contaminants, are increasingly being implicated in clinical disease and identified as causes of opportunistic infections. In cases where they grow in pure cultures, isolated from a sterile site or repeated isolations from the same patient, NDC may be labeled as clinically significant. We report here a case of non-healing infection of one of the implanted devices in a case of bilateral total hip replacement, caused by multidrug-resistant Corynebacterium striatum. Adherence to infection prevention strategies is essential for the prevention of prosthetic implant infections.
