InjuryAug 6, 2026Loosening of Implant Not Related to Bone-Ingrowth
It was reported that the patient underwent an initial knee surgery. Subsequently, the patient was revised due to a quad tendon repair approximately 7 months post-op. During the revision, the surgeon examined the knee and the femoral component appeared to be loose. The surgeon tapped the femoral component off with little to no ingrowth in the implant. All available information has been provided.

Device type (GMDN): Coated knee femur prosthesis

A sterile implantable device designed to replace the femoral condyles (femoral component) during primary bicondylar replacement of the knee joint or to replace a dysfunctional knee prosthesis (revision); it is made of metal [e.g., cobalt-chrome (Co-Cr)] and is coated with a material (e.g., beads, hydroxyapatite, mesh) intended to improve fixation and stability by promoting bone ingrowth. The device is designed to articulate with tibial and, if required, patellar prosthetic components of the knee joint and its implantation may be performed with or without bone cement.
