Joint Infection: Lavage, Culture, and Salvage
In this episode of BoardsCast, we tackle joint infections — when bacteria make their way into the synovial space and trigger one of the most damaging sequelae in orthopedic surgery. From diagnosis to definitive treatment, we walk through how to save the joint — or when to let it go.
You’ll learn:
- How to recognize and confirm septic arthritis
- What diagnostic tools are reliable (and which aren’t)
- Indications and techniques for surgical vs. needle joint lavage
- What to expect from synovial fluid cytology and culture
- Post-lavage antibiotic strategies: local vs. systemic
- Salvage procedures when the joint won’t recover
Whether you’re prepping for boards or treating a suddenly swollen stifle, this episode gives you a structured approach to joint infection management.
