Event or Problem Description
|
|
Upon review of the details of the complaint, it is apparent that there is clearly severe tibial insert polyethylene wear-through, as well as fracture damage of the tibial tray implant.The simple reported "instability" is less clear.While possibly caused by the unbalanced wear of the insert, it could also be patellar, or flexion or extension instability, involving other products--therefore, these cannot be ruled out, and are therefore reportable.Revision surgery: surgeon: (b)(6), hospital: (b)(6), date: (b)(6) 2019, reason for revision: instability.
