P-390. Burden of Surgical Site Infections with pathogens resistant to perioperative prophylaxis in orthopedic tumor surgery: Secondary analysis of the PARITY trial

Abstract

AbstractBackground

Treatment of malignant bone tumors of the lower extremity often requires complex surgical reconstruction with the use of endoprostheses.
