A case of Q fever prosthetic joint infection and description of an assay for detection of Coxiella burnetii.

ABSTRACT: We present the first published case of Coxiella burnetii prosthetic joint infection. Diagnosis was established with PCR and culture of periprosthetic tissue and synovial fluid (and serology). A novel PCR assay is described herein. Q fever should be considered in patients with prosthetic joint infection without an identified pathogen.
