ABSTRACT
A 62-year-old man with an infected periprosthetic femoral fracture, which occurred after a cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) procedure, was treated utilizing an antibiotic-impregnated cement plate for internal fixation. Open reduction and internal fixation using a cable plate were initially attempted in his case, but a deep infection with methicillin-resistant staphylococcus epidermidis at the fracture site occurred 2 months after the initial cable plate procedure. Using an antibiotic-impregnated cement plate for internal fixation, one month later, the fracture had stabilized. Successful fusion occurred at 12 months after deploying the antibiotic-impregnated cement plate. This technique was useful in this complicated case because it facilitated the goals of eradicating infection, alleviating pain, and improving function.
