Abstract

is a Gram-negative coccobacillus that is a part of normal oral flora of animals, especially cats and dogs. It is the most common causative agent for soft tissue infections following a bite or scratch from domestic pets. Prosthetic Joint Infections (PJIs) due to are rarely but increasingly reported. Since 1992, only a few cases of PJIs caused by have been described. Herein we present a case of a 67-year-old immunocompetent elderly female who developed total hip arthroplasty infection due to and was treated successfully with left hip washout, pseudo-tumor removal, and intravenous antibiotics and a review of the literature on prosthetic joint infections caused by since 1992.
