Event or Problem Description
The patient stated that "i had bilateral knee replacements performed (b)(6) 2011 with sigma implants.My orthopedic surgeon in baltimore, md said the knees would last 15-20 years.Having significant pain in both knees while cycling prompted a visit to dr.On (b)(6) 2021 where he informed me that the hardware has come loose indicating a revision is needed.This is well short of the 15-20 years lifespan of the surgery.I had a cycling goal to do raam (race across america) and had to cancel a qualifier in late august in utah.I was hoping to become the first 70+ year old rider to be an official finisher.Now due to revision in the knees, i'll have to wait at least 2 years.
