Intraoperative cultures were taken in 105 patients. Positive intraoperative cultures during conversion were recorded and managed with an infectious diseases consult. The outcomes including PJI at 90\u2009days and 1\u2009year follow-up were documented.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Overall, 19 of 105 patients (18%) undergoing conversion THA had positive intraoperative cultures, with the highest rates in the hemiarthroplasty 7\/16 (44%) and acetabular ORIF 9\/48 (19%) groups. All 19 patients were initially treated conservatively: 8 received IV antibiotics, 10 received no additional therapy, and 1 received oral antibiotics. 4\/9 acetabular fracture conversions developed PJI at 1\u2009year, with 3 requiring multiple irrigation and debridement\/polyethylene exchanges to control the infection while the 4th patient required 2-stage exchange. There were no 1-year PJI from any of the other index procedures after conversion. All 7 hemiarthroplasty patients with positive cultures were treated to resolution with 4\u20138\u2009weeks IV antibiotics alone.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Patients undergoing conversion THA from prior hip or acetabular fracture have a high rate of positive intraoperative cultures. As such, all patients undergoing conversion THA from prior hip or acetabular fracture fixation should undergo thorough diagnostic workup prior to surgery, and have intraoperative cultures obtained during surgery if infection remains suspicious. Further work should be performed to develop MSIS criteria for preoperative management of patients undergoing conversion THA.<\/jats:p>\n
