Event or Problem Description
|
|
Legal allegations reported that patient underwent a right knee revision.Subsequently, the patient began to experience pain, joint effusions, impingement, swelling, stiffness, arthrofibrosis with limited range of motion, and mid-flexion instability.Radiographic imaging displayed osteolysis at the cement bone interface of the femoral component anteriorly and posteriorly, and progressive radiolucency under the anterior flange and the posterior cut of the femoral component.Approximately eleven months post-implantation, the patient was revised due to aseptic loosening of the femoral component.Substantial scar tissue was noted during the revision.The tibial component was revised due to being slightly undersized and medialized.All components, except the patella, were exchanged for competitor product and the surgery was completed without complication.
