description •Implant-related infections are a devastating complication of orthopaedic surgery.•The emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria increases concern for their treatment.•High specificity and effectiveness make phages candidates as an orthopaedic therapeutic.•Isolated phages were efficient in infecting and reducing multidrug-resistant bacteria.•Phage therapy could be suitable to treat pathogenic bacteria in orthopaedic infections. Orthopaedic implant-associated infections are a devastating complication of orthopaedic surgery with a significant impact on patients and healthcare systems. The aims of this work were to describe the patterns of antimicrobial resistance, pathogenicity and virulence of clinical bacterial isolates from orthopaedic implant-associated infections and to further isolate and characterise bacteriophages that are efficient in controlling these bacteria. Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis and Escherichia coli isolated from orthopaedic infections showed multiresistance patterns to the most frequently used antibiotics in clinical settings. The presence of mobile genetic elements (mecA, Tn916/Tn1545 and intl1) and virulence determinants (icaB, cna, hlb, cylLs, cylM, agg, gelE, fsr and fimA) highlighted the pathogenicity of these isolates. Moreover, the isolates belonged to clonal complexes associated with the acquisition of pathogenicity islands and antimicrobial resistance genes by recombination and horizontal gene transfer. Bacteriophages vB_SauM_LM12, vB_EfaS_LM99 and vB_EcoM_JB75 were characterised and their ability to infect clinical isolates of S. aureus, E. faecalis and E. coli, respectively, was assessed. Morphological and genomic analyses revealed that vB_EfaS_LM99 and vB_EcoM_JB75 belong to the Siphoviridae and Myoviridae families, respectively, and no genes associated with lysogeny were found. The bacteriophages showed low latent periods, high burst sizes, broad host ranges and tolerance to several environmental conditions. Moreover, they showed high efficiency and specificity to infect and reduce clinical bacteria, including methicillin-resistant S. aureus and vancomycin-resistant enterococci. Therefore, the results obtained suggest that the bacteriophages used in this work are a promising approach to control these pathogens involved in orthopaedic implant-associated infections.
