https://www.selleckchem.com/products/piperaquine-phosphate.html The Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) has been used as intravesical immunotherapy for superficial urothelial bladder carcinoma in preventing its recurrence. Prosthetic joint infections due to those instillations are very rare and few practitioners know this side effect. We report the case of a 77-year old male with a medical history of right hip replacement and super- ficial urothelial bladder carcinoma treated with BCG-instillations. He presented with a painful hip joint and extreme difficulty at walking. Because of high suspicion of prosthetic joint infection, a 2-stage arthroplasty was performed. Microbiological culture revealed Mycobacterium bovis so he was kept on antituberculous therapy for twelve months. Remarkable is the delay between the instillations and the acquisition of the prosthetic joint infection. A medical history of BCG instillations should warrant the practitioner for a possible joint infection. There are no current guidelines concerning the therapy.The aim of this study is to assess if there is a difference in outcomes between a dynamic hip screw with or without an anti-rotation screw in the treatment of hip fractures. All patients with an intracapsular hip fracture who underwent dynamic hip screw osteosynthesis between January 2010 and December 2013 in three Dutch hospitals were reviewed. Minimal follow-up was one year. The study included a total of 364 patients. 24 patients were lost to follow-up and excluded. 297 (87.4%) were in the dynamic hip screw group and 43 (12.6%) in the dynamic hip with anti-rotation screw group. Direct comparison of patient characteristics of the two groups showed significant differences in age, sex, Garden classification and Pauwels classification. Patients operated with a dynamic hip screw and anti-rotation screw are significantly younger and their fractures are significantly more dislocated and steeper. To draw conclusions about differences in outcome, a
