We report 16 cases of erythematous eruption on the skin within the flaps of the surgical incision after primary total hip replacement over an eight-year period. The symptoms began within nine months of operation in 13 hips, and two to three years after in three. Four patients had recurrent episodes. All were treated with antibiotics (15 intravenous, one oral) with complete resolution of the eruption within one to six days. The mean follow-up after the last episode of cellulitis was 27 months (14 to 76). There were no cases of periprosthetic sepsis or other sequelae. |
