Abstract:

Periprosthetic infection (PJI) is a disastrous complication after artificial joint replacement. In the treatment of PJI, early and timely diagnosis of PJI and identification of pathogenic microorganisms are still the keys to successful treatment. However, there are still many shortcomings in the existing bacterial culture technology. Next-generation sequencing technology has been gradually applied to the diagnosis of PJI due to its characteristics of rapid, accurate and comprehensive diagnosis of pathogenic microorganisms. But, most of the current clinical joint surgeons are still lack of understanding of the next-generation sequencing technology and its application in the diagnosis of PJI. This paper reviewed this issue.
