Orthopaedic Implants Failure At Environment Of Infection
Keywords:
Failure – Orthodontic implants – InfectionAbstract
This study included (93) cases of Orthopaedic implant failure: (65) ORIF and (28) prostheses at environment of infection.
Infection created suitable conditions for the failure of the orthopedic implant through different mechanisms, the most important of which is bone resorption around the implant. Several factors contributed to the high rate of failure in conditions of infection related to the type of implant, its efficiency, the condition of the bone in which it was implanted, some incorrect surgical techniques, and the level of health awareness of the patient.
The study showed the existence of a negative two-way reciprocal relationship between the failure of the orthopedic implant and the development of infection around it.
The orthopedic implant that failed was removed in most cases, and in some special cases where keeping the implant was an urgent requirement, the implant was kept (14) cases with all the usual measures taken to treat infection. These cases were of mild degrees that were detected early in conditions of low-effective infection and a good immune status of the patient.
