Brief summary

Staphylococcus lugdunensis is a coagulase-negative staphylococcus belonging to the human commensal cutaneous flora, and has been little studied in the field of prosthetic joint infections. However, it shares many virulence traits with Staphylococcus aureus, including many adhesins and its ability to form biofilm, and the few series of cases reports a significant failure rate.
