It was reported that on (b)(6) 2025, the patient underwent a tka surgery for oa with the products in question.The surgery was completed successfully with no surgical delay.After about two weeks of non-weight bearing after surgery, rehabilitation began, but the patient complained of pain, so photographs were taken to check.Subsequent follow-up observation revealed that the fracture had widened and the tibia had become tilted.The surgeon commented "when the tibial base plate was placed posteriorly and cementless, the pegs interfered, causing a spur after surgery.It is believed that the spur then widened because rehabilitation began before bone fusion had begun." no further information is available.
