Many studies have shown that systemic and local infections cause fibrinolytic activities. The purpose of this study was to determine the role of serum D-dimer in the diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) and the timing of reimplantation. The patients who underwent primary and revision knee or hip arthroplasty between July 2018 and May 2019 were prospectively evaluated. All surgeries were performed by the same surgeon. 60 of 71 patients who met our criteria were included in the study, comprising of 27 primary arthroplasties (PA), 21 two-stage septic revision (SR) and 12 aseptic revision (AR). We analyzed D-dimer, C-reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) levels. The values of the septic group were evaluated as two groups; Group 1 (before the first stage) and Group 2 (before the second stage) to investigate the role of D-dimer in determining the timing of reimplantation. D-dimer level was significantly higher in the SR group compared to PA and AR groups (p<0.001 and p=0.045). CRP and ESR levels were significantly higher in the SR group compared to PA and AR groups. There was no statistically significant difference between preoperative D-dimer levels of Group 1 and Group 2 (p=0.2). Serum D-dimer level can be used as an easy and inexpensive test to support the diagnosis of PJI. But the D-dimer level is not useful to determine the timing of reimplantation.
