Laboratory evidence of <i>C. acnes</i> PJI in this cohort was typical compared to more conventional organisms. Cultures grew more quickly than previously thought in patients with <i>C. acnes</i> PJI. Treatment with two-stage exchange or chronic antibiotic suppression alone both had few treatment failures at mid-term follow-up.
