We explored the role of vancomycin-supplemented cancellous bone allografts in hip
revision surgery. We evaluated the incorporation of these allografts in 18 pigs' radiographs …

Vancomycin-supplemented allografts provide biological restoration of bone stock and sound
fixation with a low incidence of re-infection. Experimental incorporation of these grafts is …

Bone allografts can store and release high levels of vancomycin. We present our results of a
two-stage treatment for infected hip arthroplasty with acetabular and femoral impaction …

The addition of antibiotic to cement is a frequent practice in aseptic revision hip surgery
There is concern about adding vancomycin to cement due to potential effects on mechanical …

Background Cancellous bone can act as a delivery vehicle for vancomycin without
impairment of graft incorporation. However, local and systemic antibiotic levels, biological …

Periprosthetic deep infection in combination with substantial bone loss is one of the most
challenging situations in revision hip surgery. We believe the effective management of these …

We compared the incorporation of bone allografts with or without vancomycin in tibial
defects of 18 pigs. High-quality radiographs, histological examination, immunological …

Bacterial contamination of bone allograft is a significant complication of orthopedic surgery.
To address this issue, we have engineered a method for covalently modifying bone allograft …

Infection of an orthopedic implant is considered a devastating complication, necessitating its
complete removal and thorough debridement of the site. Osseous defects are common in …
