Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a patient underwent an initial total knee arthroplasty.Approximately two years post-implantation, the patient started to experience pain in the knee.The products were ultimately revised four years and four months post initial implantation.During the surgery, the articular surface was found to be worn, the tibial component was found to have loosened and migrated, and the femoral component was loosened.The surgeon theorized that the loosening was caused by an inflammatory reaction to abrasion particles and cement technique error.It was reported that no further information is available.
