Serratia marcescens prosthetic joint infection: Two case reports and a review of the literature

Despite some studies on Gram-negative bacteria as difficult-to-treat pathogens in periprosthetic joint infections, there are no detailed analyses on Serratia periprosthetic joint infections. As such, we present two cases of Serratia periprosthetic joint infections and summarize all known cases to date in the course of a PRISMA criteria-based systematic review.
