Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether an undirected synovial biopsy technique has the same accuracy in detecting periprosthetic joint infection in the knee as an arthroscopic assisted directed synovial biopsy technique.

Conditions

  • Infection of Total Knee Joint Prosthesis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

synovial biopsy of total knee arthroplasty

synovial biopsies are taken via two different techniques in the same patient to allow direct comparison of results
