Office note (b)(06) 2022: patient is having pain and feelings of instability in her right knee which feels like her ¿leg is shifting on her when she walks.¿ she has difficulty with activities of daily living.She has moderate effusion and flexion only to 60-70 degrees with significant varus laxity.Radiographs show knee is in more varus alignment when compared to previous radiographs with some collapse.Patella shows some lytic dysvascular changes.(b)(6) 2022: revision performed on revision components in the right knee.Please note, the records indicate this patient underwent a revision of revision components.There is no information provided that indicates the manufacturer of the primary components prior to the first revision.Intraoperative findings state that the femoral adaptor had fractured.There was massive distal femoral osteolysis and massive proximal tibial lysis requiring significant bone grafting.There was fairly significant synovitis secondary to metallosis.The femoral component was rotating and was loose-no interface provided.It could be pushed into varus and valgus stress but could not be disimpacted from the sleeve.The femoral adaptor was broken but still had the threads engaged in the metaphyseal sleeve that could not be disimpacted.Ultimately the surgeon was able to disrupt the taper and remove the femoral component.He chose to leave the metaphyseal sleeve and placed a hinged noiles distal femoral replacement.Patella was worn and removed with the surgeon choosing not to resurface due to lack of bone.
