“…Summarizing the statements provided in the review articles, essays, and case reports (Table 1), a few commonly reported traits can be made out: claimed radiographic signs of infection are periosteal reaction [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33], formation of lamellae [23], focal osteolysis or bone destruction [7,23,24,26,28,31,[33][34][35][36][37][38], a wide radiolucent zone [23,32,36,39], signs of loosening in a previously well-fixed implant [24,27,28,32,34], heterotopic bone formation [28,40], mottling [31], an intracortical sinus tract [24,28], periprosthetic fractures [27], adjacent soft-tissue collection [29,30,32], and rapid disease progression [25]. Aseptic loosening tends to produce uniform radiolucency, whereas particle disease produces multifocal radiolucencies related to localized osteolysis.…”
