Intricate interactions between the pathogen, the host, and the implant can result in PJIs which are not only physically devastating for the patient, but also financially crippling for health authorities and insurance companies. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eActions taken to minimize the risk of PJIs can be extremely challenging for the orthopaedic community.
