We report a case of clostridial bacteraemia with infection of a prosthetic hip joint. The patient was successfully treated with IV benzyl penicillin and fucidin followed by oral amoxycillin and probenecid, without surgical intervention. She had no recurrence of her infection in the 19 months before her death. This is believed to be the first reported case of clostridial infection affecting a prosthetic joint.
