Is Hypercalcemia a Frequent Complication following Local Use of Calcium Sulfate with Antibiotics for the Treatment of Extremity Posttraumatic Osteomyelitis? A Preliminary Study
Background. Previous study had reported hypercalcemia as a frequent complication (20%) following local use of antibiotic-eluting calcium sulfate (CS) during treatment of periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs). However, whether this complication may occur in patients who receive local CS implantation...
