Preoperative calculation of treatment failure risk in patients undergoing surgery for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is imperative to allow for medical optimization and targeted prevention. A preoperative prognostic model for PJI treatment failure was previously developed, and this study sought to externally validate the model. A retrospective review was performed of 380 PJIs treated at two institutions. The model was used to calculate the risk of treatment failure, and receiver operating characteristic curves were generated to
