Event or Problem Description
|
|
The following problem occurred during the implantation of the knee prosthesis: after correct placement of the femoral trumach template, the femoral receiving surface was formed.The probe stopped at 6 mm on the suprapatellar surface.Because of this, we had to resize, and by reshaping the femoral surface, we were able to glue 2 numbers smaller prostheses with security.In this size the prosthesis rested well but unfortunately due to the size reduction they also had to adjust the size of the tibial tray.
