Abstrakt		The infection is a frequent reason for failure after total hip and knee arthroplasty (1, 2). The incidence of prosthetic joint infection (PJIJ after primary total hip arthroplasty has been reported to be about 1 percent, and after knee arthroplasty, between 1 and 2 percent. The rate of PJI is even higher among the patients that are managed with revision procedures and those who are immunocompromised. The contemporary four-stage classification of PJI together with the stability of the implant suggest the therapy that is successful in over 90% of cases, although the necessary treatment is often long lasting, expensive and unpleasant for the patient. The two-stage prosthetic exchange with a minimum 6-week interval and antibiotics is still the 'golden standard' of treatment, although there is growing tendency of less aggressive treatment (one-stage exchange, retention and bio-film aggressive antibiotics, etc). The following article is the review of PJI in the five-year period (1999-2003) in our hospital and comparison with the data from literature.
