“…Numerous reports of prosthetic joint infections with P. multocida following cat bites have prompted several authors to advocate prophylactic antibiotics. [101][102][103] Overall, the consensus is that prophylaxis should be considered for all bite wounds after primary closure, 104 puncture wounds, cat bites to hand and wrist, clenched fist injuries and crush wounds with devitalized tissue. 2,7 Prophylaxis has also been recommended for patients with medical conditions predisposing to infection after animal bites such as mastectomy, prosthetic joints, diabetes mellitus, immunosuppression and splenectomy.…”

“…Earlier case reports of P multocida PJIs were more likely to be treated nonoperatively. Of the seven patients treated nonoperatively, three (42.9%) failed antimicrobial therapy alone ( 7 , 10 , 12 ). The benefits of less-invasive interventions must be balanced with the risk of treatment failure.…”

Prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) are commonly caused by pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci; however, other microbial etiologies and specific risk factors are increasingly recognized. Pasteurella multocida is a Gram-negative coccobacillus that is part of the normal oral flora in many animals, and is particularly common in dogs and cats. PJIs caused by P multocida have been reported only rarely in the literature and typically occur in the context of an animal bite or scratch. The present article describes a P multocida joint infection that occurred after a dog lick and complicated a two-stage revision arthroplasty. A comprehensive review of the literature regarding P multocida PJIs follows. Pasteurella multocida, un coccobacille à Gram négatif qui fait partie de la flore orale normale de nombreux animaux, est particulièrement courant chez les chiens et les chats. Peu d'IPA causées par le P multocida sont signalées dans les publications scientifiques, mais elles se produisent surtout après une morsure ou une griffure d'animal. Le présent article décrit une infection à P multocida qui s'est manifestée après que l'articulation a été léchée par un chien et une arthroplastie de révision compliquée en deux étapes. Une analyse bibliographique approfondie de l'IPA à P multocida suit.
