Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the patient underwent a left knee arthroplasty revision of the articular surface to address pain, swelling and limited range of motion approximately one (1) year post-operatively.Reportedly, the rotation of the tibia had resulted in conflict during flexion and the femoral component was not interacting with the articular surface correctly.An ultra congruent articular surface was used to correct the articulation.The patient was satisfied following the procedure.

Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the patient underwent a left knee arthroplasty revision of the articular surface to address pain, swelling and instability that was interfering with range of motion approximately one year post-operatively.The surgeon reported that the tibial rotation did not match the correct placement for a medial congruent bearing as the soft tissues were too tight to allow component articulation.Attempts to obtain additional information have been made; however, no more is available at this time.
