Metagenomic next-generation sequencing contribution in identifying prosthetic joint infection due to Parvimonas micra: a case report

<p class="p p-first-last" id="__p3">Identifying fastidious pathogens in patients with prosthetic joint infection (PJI) by culture is challenging. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) is a novel culture-independent approach that is associated with a higher likelihoo...
