      Purpose. The success of total joint arthroplasty (TJA) has led to consistent growth in the use of arthroplasty in progressivelyyounger patients. However, more than 10 percent of patients require revision surgery due to implant failure caused by asepticor septic inflammation. Among the latter, surgical site infection (SSI) represents one of the worst complications of TJA,potentially resulting in the removal of the prosthesis. The aim of our study was to identify potential risk factors for SSIs in apopulation of patients undergoing TJA. Methods. TJA were prospectively recruited at Casa di Cura Santa Maria Maddalenafrom February 2019 to April 2020. Age, sex, major comorbidities, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class, length ofsurgery, type of surgical suture, total hospital length of stay, and clinical laboratory data were collected. The study populationwas then divided into two groups: Group A, normal postoperative course, and Group B, patients who developed SSI at follow-up (17-25 days). Results. 25/760 (3.3%) patients developed SSIs at follow-up. Clinical and demographic parameters were notdifferent between the two groups. Total leucocyte and neutrophil values at discharge resulted to be significatively higher inGroup B compared to Group A (p = 0:025 and p = 0:016, respectively). Values of 7860/μL for total leucocyte and 5185/μL forneutrophil count at discharge significantly predicted the future development of SSI (AUC 0.623 and AUC 0.641, respectively; p< 0:05) independently from confounding factors (total leukocytes: O:R: = 3, 69 [95% C.I. 1,63-8,32]; neutrophils: O:R: = 3, 98[95% C.I. 1,76-8,97]). Deep SSIs has been diagnosed significantly before superficial SSIs (p = 0,008), with a median advance of9 days. Conclusion. Total leukocytes and neutrophils at discharge seem useful to identify a population at risk for thedevelopment of septic inflammation at the surgical site following TJA. Further studies with larger populations are needed to develop a predictive SSIs risk score that should include ...
