It was reported that the patient underwent a knee arthroplasty revision of the polyethylene articular surface to address instability approximately twenty (20) months post-operatively.During the procedure, the tibial baseplate and femoral component were stable, however, the surgeon noted mid-flexion instability through range of motion and upsized the articular surface, which resolved the instability.Attempts have been made, however, no additional information is available.
