On (b)(6) 2014, the patient had a left total knee arthroplasty to address degenerative arthritis, varus deformity and flexion contracture of the left knee.
Depuy components, including depuy patella, and unknown cement were used during this procedure.
On (b)(6) 2016, the patient had a revision left total knee, complete and totally synovectomy, excision of reactive bone cyst to address loosening of the tibial component, polyethylene and polymethylmethacrylate wear debris disease, reactive synovitis of left knee secondary to polyethylene wear debris and cement wear debris disease, cystic formation, and knee pain.
During the procedure the surgeon observed necrotic looking granulation tissue, and some bone erosions.
The tibial screw was noted to be grossly loose, the tibial tray had completely debonded from the cement and the cement was noted to have degraded.
