The patient was revised approximately four years, three months after his initial left tka due to pain and swelling.Radiology reviews revealed osteolysis and erosions under the medial tibial plateau which the surgeon attributed to early loosening of the tibial stem.During the revision, a fracture was noted on the medial tibial plateau and erosions confirmed.The tibial components were revised without complication, the patella was resurfaced, and the femoral components were left intact.
