Case We present a case of a 70-year-old woman with simultaneous periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) of both hips and left knee due to a bilateral psoas abscess. The patient underwent debridement and implants removal with the consequent reimplantation in a sequential six-stage revision surgery. At four years of follow-up and in spite of the patient’s comorbidities and current PJI presentation, she maintains full activities of daily living without restrictions. Conclusion Accurate and early diagnosis of a psoas abscess is crucial. This case report provides experience of a complex scenario, the decision-making involved and the outcomes of an underdiagnosed complication.

BACKGROUND: Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) due to Salmonella sp. is rare. It is sometimes difficult to treat and need prolonged antibiotic treatment. CASE REPORT: We reported a case of PJI of the hip in a 67-year-old female who received prior left total hip arthroplasty. Two-stage revision surgery with antibiotic-loaded cement spacer had been performed to the patient and successfully control the infection. CONCLUSION: Although literature review showed that there has been no consensus for the treatment of Salmonella PJI, a two-stage revision procedure has been more commonly performed to control the infection by previous authors and might be the safest way to control Salmonella PJI recently.
