This pi is for patient 3 of 3.
(b)(6) y/o male, surgery (b)(6) 2019.
Right knee.
As reported by surgeon: attached are xrays of three patients i previously discussed.
All have concerning radiolucencies underneath the tibial baseplate that appeared several months post op.
Thus far, none have required revision but all have some degree of pain (mostly medial).
Again i never saw this prior the mics transition.
Let me know your thoughts and if any other surgeons have seen this issue.
More recently, i have been using a 2mm drill to perforate the sclerotic tibial surface to promote better cement interdigitation and my results seem to be much better.
Case type: pka 3.
