Periprosthetic infection remains one of the most serious complications after total hip arthroplasty and is associated with prolonged treatment, repeated surgical interventions, and significant functional impairment. The aim of this study was to investigate the bacteriological spectrum of pathogens responsible for deep periprosthetic infection after total hip arthroplasty and to develop rational approaches to antimicrobial therapy based on microbiological findings.
