Event Description
|
It was reported that a patient was revised approximately two months¿ post implantation due to wound healing problems that disengaged his hinged femur from his right tibial component.This was a result of having had a distal femoral replacement with absence of collateral ligaments causing the femur to disengage from the tibia when the knee became flexed.Attempts to obtain additional information have been made; however, no more information is available.
