Résumé

There are currently no recommendations to direct the optimal diagnosis and treatment of fungal osteoarticular infections, including prosthetic joint infections and osteomyelitis. Active agents (fluconazole; amphotericin B) are regularly applied per os or intravenously. Other drugs such as voriconazole are used less frequently, especially locally. Voriconazole is less toxic and has promising results. Local antifungal medication during primary surgical treatment has been investigated by implanting an impregnated PMMA cement spacer using intra-articular powder or by daily intra-articular lavage. The admixed dosages are rarely based on characteristic values and microbiological and mechanical data. The purpose of this in vitro study is to investigate the mechanical stability and efficacy of antifungal-admixed PMMA with admixed voriconazole at low and high concentrations. Mechanical properties (ISO 5833 and DIN 53435) as well as efficacy with inhibition zone tests with two Candida spp. were investigated. We tested three separate cement bodies at each measuring time ( Mixing voriconazole powder with PMMA (Polymethylmethacrylate) powder homogeneously is not easy because of the high amount of dry voriconazole in the powder formulation. Adding voriconazole (a powder for infusion solutions) has a high impact on its mechanical properties. Efficacy is already good at low concentrations.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
There are currently no recommendations to direct the optimal diagnosis and treatment of fungal osteoarticular infections, including prosthetic joint infections and osteomyelitis. Active agents (fluconazole; amphotericin B) are regularly applied per os or intravenously. Other drugs such as voriconazole are used less frequently, especially locally. Voriconazole is less toxic and has promising results. Local antifungal medication during primary surgical treatment has been investigated by implanting an impregnated PMMA cement spacer using intra-articular powder or by daily intra-articular lavage. The admixed dosages are rarely based on characteristic values and microbiological and mechanical data. The purpose of this in vitro study is to investigate the mechanical stability and efficacy of antifungal-admixed PMMA with admixed voriconazole at low and high concentrations.
METHODS METHODS
Mechanical properties (ISO 5833 and DIN 53435) as well as efficacy with inhibition zone tests with two Candida spp. were investigated. We tested three separate cement bodies at each measuring time (
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Mixing voriconazole powder with PMMA (Polymethylmethacrylate) powder homogeneously is not easy because of the high amount of dry voriconazole in the powder formulation. Adding voriconazole (a powder for infusion solutions) has a high impact on its mechanical properties. Efficacy is already good at low concentrations.
