Synovial Fluid Alpha-defensin Lateral Flow Assay is Specific but Not Sensitive for Periprosthetic Joint Infection in Revision Arthroplasty: A Propensity Score-matched Analysis
Background: Synovial fluid alpha-defensin lateral flow assay (ADLFA) is a quick adjunctive test in diagnosing periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after primary arthroplasty. However, evidence is lacking for postrevision arthroplasty cases. Thus, we investigated the performance of ADLFA in revision...
