摘　　要：The practice of implementing an antibiotic holiday before the second stage of hip or knee arthroplasty is currently controversial due to limited evidence for this approach,as per the International Consensus Meeting 2018 on Musculoskeletal Infection.A greater understanding of this issue could augment the quality of Alrayes and Sukeik’s mini-review(2023)on diagnosing,managing,and treating periprosthetic knee infections.However,a significant lack of literature exists concerning the optimal duration for the antibiotic holiday,calling for more research before establishing any clinical guidelines.
