What is the definition of acute and chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) of total ankle arthroplasty (TAA)?
Authors: Michael Aynardi, Milena M. Plöger, K.C. Walley, C.B. Arena
RECOMMENDATION: There is a paucity of data for defining acute or chronic PJI following TAA in the literature. Any discussion of PJI after ankle replacement is entirely reliant on the literature surrounding knee and hip arthroplasty.
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Consensus
