Histological evaluation of the periprosthetic soft and osseous tissues is an important analytical tool. Its standardization is essential to generate accurate and reproducible data which allow comparisons for academic institutions, arthroplasty registries, and government regulatory agencies worldwide. It is also part of multidisciplinary evaluation of orthopedic implant failures and provides valuable information to be integrated with the clinical data, allergological tests, radiological exams, m…

Abstract
Histological evaluation of the periprosthetic soft and osseous tissues is an important analytical tool. Its standardization is essential to generate accurate and reproducible data which allow comparisons for academic institutions, arthroplasty registries, and government regulatory agencies worldwide. It is also part of multidisciplinary evaluation of orthopedic implant failures and provides valuable information to be integrated with the clinical data, allergological tests, radiological exams, microbiological analysis, and biomechanical assessment of the implant wear.
Contents
Introduction -- Interdisciplinary Diagnosis of Joint Prosthesis Pathology -- Clinical Approach on Synovial-Like Interface Membranes -- Standardized Collection and Processing of Periprosthetic Tissue Samples -- Future Perspectives -- Conclusion.

Abstract
There are a variety of protocols that are used in infected total joint arthroplasty. This book will outline and detail the best possible course of treatment and formulate custom algorithms for every possible case, based on current evidence. reviews of current concepts and "recipes" for the diagnostic and therapeutic procedures (surgical and antibiotic) based on the type of implant, infection and the patient. The book will be an essential resource on infected total joint arthroplasty, containing a series of logical and highly detailed instructions that will serve to educate orthopedic surgeons operating in this field on the best approaches, according to detailed and careful research conducted over the last decade.
