There are many organisms that commonly cause this complication; in this case report, we will discuss a PJI caused by an unusual bacteria found in the mouths of domestic pets.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Objective:<\/jats:title>\n To present a case report of a patient with a periprosthetic hip infection from Capnocytophaga canimorsus and review the literature.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods:<\/jats:title>\n We present a case of C canimorsus PJI in an immunocompetent woman who had undergone a total hip arthroplasty. The patient was doing well postoperatively for many years until she was bitten on the foot by a domestic canine. Patient diagnosed using Musculoskeletal Infection Society criteria, then treated with explant of the hip prosthesis, irrigation and debridement, placement of an antibiotic cement spacer, and a 6-week course of intravenous antibiotics.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n Unfortunately, while awaiting replant, this patient had a massive myocardial infarction and died.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Discussion:<\/jats:title>\n Current literature suggests treating canine bites with amoxicillinas well as a discussion with patients pre-\/postoperatively from a lower extremity arthroplasty specialist.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n Capnocytophaga canimorsus is a rare cause of infection, even more unusual in an immunocompetent patient. This study highlights the importance of considering C canimorsus as a cause of PJI, regardless of the immunologic status of the patient.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/2151459318825199","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,25]],"date-time":"2019-04-25T05:10:05Z","timestamp":1556169005000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Capnocytophaga canimorsus<\/i>\n Periprosthetic Joint Infection in an Immunocompetent Patient: A Case Report"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Blane C.","family":"Kelly","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Virginia Commonwealth University Health System, Richmond, VA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David S.","family":"Constantinescu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Virginia Commonwealth University Health System, Richmond, VA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"William","family":"Foster","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Virginia Commonwealth University Health System, Richmond, VA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-2151459318825199","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/JBJS.L.00789"},{"key":"bibr2-2151459318825199","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5435\/JAAOS-D-14-00385"},{"key":"bibr3-2151459318825199","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.vetmic.2014.03.023"},{"key":"bibr4-2151459318825199","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.vetmic.2010.12.010"},{"key":"bibr5-2151459318825199","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/mBio.02507-14"},{"issue":"2","key":"bibr6-2151459318825199","first-page":"289","volume":"70","author":"Zajkowska J","year":"2016","journal-title":"Przegl Epidemiol"},{"key":"bibr7-2151459318825199","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.knee.2017.04.011"},{"key":"bibr8-2151459318825199","volume":"2018","author":"Hettiarachchi I","year":"2018","journal-title":"BMJ Case Rep"},{"key":"bibr9-2151459318825199","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11999-008-0209-4"}],"container-title":["Geriatric Orthopaedic Surgery & Rehabilitation"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/2151459318825199","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/2151459318825199","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/2151459318825199","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,29]],"date-time":"2026-04-29T07:07:56Z","timestamp":1777446476000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/2151459318825199"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,1]]},"references-count":9,"alternative-id":["10.1177\/2151459318825199"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/2151459318825199","relation":{},"ISSN":["2151-4593","2151-4593"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2151-4593","type":"print"},{"value":"2151-4593","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,1]]},"article-number":"2151459318825199"}}
