DOI: 10.1111/1756-185x.13314
Abstract: Several systematic reviews have been performed to investigate whether intra‐articular steroid injections can increase the risk of infection in subsequent arthroplasty. However, the conclusions of these systematic reviews are discordant. The purpose of the present… read more here.
