ABSTRACT:
Acute septic
knee arthritis is a rare but potentially devastating complication following
knee arthroplasty. We present a case of an 81-year-old male who developed Acute septic knee arthritis
following a revision Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA). The patient's clinical
course was complicated by Klebsiella Pneumonia infection, likely originating
from an infected pacemaker. This case report highlights the successful
management of Acute septic knee arthritis using XPERIENCE®
No-Rinse Solution as a crucial component of the treatment. The patient
experienced complete resolution of knee symptoms without recurrence.
