Brief Summary
Osteaoarticular infection due to C. acnes are known to be of late onset, causing chronic infection possibly pauci-symptomatic. Osteaoarticular infection due to C. acnes represents a diagnostic challenge, since C. acnes is slow and difficult to grow, and can also be considered a contaminant.A 16S universal PCR bacteriological diagnosis has been proposed but is lacking of sensitivity. A specific C. acnes PCR was developed in 2010, but is not used routinely.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Rate of diagnostic delay
time between surgery and detection of C. acnes by PCR
Outcome is measured at the end of follow-up (usually between 12 and 24 months after antibiotic therapy disruption
Secondary Outcomes (3)
rate of radiologic signs
Outcome is measured at the end of follow-up (usually between 12 and 24 months after antibiotic therapy disruption
rate of duration of antibiotherapy
Outcome is measured at the end of follow-up (usually between 12 and 24 months after antibiotic therapy disruption
rate of use of this diagnostic
Outcome is measured at the end of follow-up (usually between 12 and 24 months after antibiotic therapy disruption
