| Core Tip |
Although antibiotic-loaded poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) bone cements are widely used both as prophylactic agent and in the treatment/management of prosthetic joint infection, there is dissatisfaction about the material. A new generation of antibiotic-free antimicrobial PMMA bone cements (AFAMBCs) is emerging. The present review is a critical appraisal of the literature on AFAMBCs, highlighting its strengths, shortcomings, and possible areas for future studies. The conclusion is that state-of-the-art on AFAMBC formulations is such that it is premature to comment on the potential of any of the formulations for clinical application. |
