host_description
Patient with history of hip replacement with subsequent retained-hardware revision presents following a mechanical fall and generalized upper extremity weakness. Drainage noted at site of previous revision and CT pelvis imaging was suggestive of necrotizing prosthetic joint infection. Spinal computed tomography visualized multi-level enhancements suggestive of multiple loculations and paraspinal abscesses with tracheoesophagaeal fistulation. Clinical course was complicated by staphylococcal bacteremia managed medically with daptomycin. Patient was managed surgically with explantation and hardware exchange. Patient was discharged to a skilled nursing facility. Duration of bacteremia: 8 days.
