Typical errors in rendering specialized care to patients with chronic periprosthetic infection after total hip arthroplasty are demonstrated on the example of one patient. The role of patient examination with due regard for the complication risk factors, insufficient alertness in respect to postoperative infectious complications, absence of continuity at the steps of surgical treatment, complexity of eradication of infectious agent and need of multidisciplinary approach for rendering care to this group of patients is specially emphasized.
