Event or Problem Description
It was reported via legal documentation that approximately 143 months after a right total knee replacement procedure, the patient underwent a revision procedure to address prosthesis wear, pain, swelling, and instability.Upon revision of the exactech device, plaintiff's surgeon observed signs of prosthetic loosening due to gross polyethylene wear and osteolysis.No further issues or complications were reported.No additional information is available.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The reason for the revision reported cannot be confirmed from the information provided but may be the result of prosthesis wear, instability, and loosening.Additionally, these devices appear to have been implanted for over ten years prior to the reported event.Potential contributions of user and patient-related considerations to the event could not be assessed as the devices were not available for evaluation and images, radiographs, and relevant clinical information were not provided.
