Representative radiographs from the PEG-PPS, vancomycin (Vanc), and tigecycline (Tig) groups from POD 0 to 28. There was an observable increase in condylar osteolysis and reactive bone formation in the PEG-PPS group compared with the tigecycline and vancomycin groups, which showed no detectable radiographic evidence of osteolysis. This suggests clinical relevance of the decrease in bacterial burden in the antibiotic-encapsulated coatings.
