Management of septic arthritis of the hip joint in adults. A systematic review of the literature

Abstract Background The septic arthritis of the hip is a complex condition characterized by a variety of clinical presentations, a challenging diagnosis and different surgical treatment options, including arthroscopy, resection arthroplasty and one and two-stage total hip replacement. Each technique...
