This complaint is from a literature source.The following literature cite has been reviewed: koster la, rassir r, kaptein bl, sierevelt in, schager m, nelissen rghh, nolte pa.A randomized controlled trial comparing two-year postoperative femoral and tibial migration of a new and an established cementless rotating platform total knee arthroplasty.Bone joint j.2023 feb;105-b(2):148-157.Doi: 10.1302/0301-620x.105b2.Bjj-2022-0414.R1.Pmid: 36722052.Objective and methods: the primary aim of this study was to compare the migration of the femoral and tibial components of the cementless rotating platform attune and low contact stress (lcs) total knee arthroplasty (tka) designs, two years postoperatively, using radiostereometric analysis (rsa) in order to assess the risk of the development of aseptic loosening.A secondary aim was to compare clinical and patient-reported outcome measures (proms) between the designs.A total of 62 tkas (24 attune and 28 lcs) implanted between july 2017 and march were analyzed.No patellas were resurfaced.Lot, model and catalog number are not available, but the suspected depuy device possibly associated with reported adverse events: lcs or attune cementless rp constructs including femoral component, tibial insert, and tibial tray adverse event(s) and provided interventions associated with depuy devices: an unknown number of attune and lcs tibial and femoral components were identified as migrated on serial radiographic studies.No treatment provided.An unknown number of patients reported postoperative pain, no treatment provided.1 patient with preexisting valgus deformity received an attune tibial insert revision to treat spin out.
