We have encountered two cases of joint infection with methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) . The infections were believed to have resulted from exposure to S. aureus in the hospital, and hosts whose immunity was compromised by such factors as multiple trauma. The infections were successfully treated by radical debridement with antibiotics, however, residual joint function was severely restricted. Preventing exposure to pathogens in the hospital is emphasized as crucial in avoiding infections of this kind.
