Aseptic revision of left knee.Knee had been revised many years ago and the femoral component was unsupported by bone so in time the stress was all on the bolt and it failed.The femoral component was removed, the adaptor was removed from the well ingrown sleeve and an srom hinge femur was inserted into the femoral sleeve, a 12mm hinge insert was placed and the wound was closed.I was not provided with original date of surgery so i read the lot numbers as much as possible from the removed implants.
