Antibiotic cement plate composite structure internal fixation after debridement of bone infection

Abstract An internal fixation composite structure of antibiotic cement plates was created. The aim of this study was to analyse the infection control effect of this structure when applied to treat a bone infection. We retrospectively analysed patients with bone infection admitted to our hospital bet...
