Event or Problem Description
It was reported that, after a revision of partial right knee replacement had been performed on (b)(6) 2025, the patient experienced a traumatic subcutaneous rupture of the right patellar tendon.This was treated by patellar tendon repair on (b)(6) 2026, in which surgical repair of the tendon was performed.Subsequently, the patient developed localized pain of the surgical wound, formation of scar tissue, and a small superficial dehiscence requiring surgical revision.Due to progressive local septic inflammation with initial systemic involvement, the patient was readmitted on (b)(6) 2026 for a prosthetic infection.This adverse event was treated by complete prosthetic explanation, surgical cleaning, and replacement with an antibiotic-impregnated cement spacer on (b)(6) 2026.The explanted prosthetic components showed no signs of damage, breakage, wear, or other mechanical problems.Current health status of patient is unknown.
