IT WAS REPORTED THAT, AFTER A TKA SURGERY HAD BEEN PERFORMED ON AN UNSPECIFIED DATE, THE KNEE BECAME SYMPTOMATIC SINCE, AT LEAST, 2020. ABOUT THREE WEEKS AGO, A CRACKING NOISE WAS HEARD, SO A RADIOLOGICAL IMAGE WAS TAKEN TO CHECK IF AN IMPLANT FRACTURED. A REVISION SURGERY WAS CONDUCTED ON (B)(6) 2022 TO ADDRESS THE FRACTURE OF GII CONV W/TAPER SZ 6 RT. THE TOTAL KNEE ENDOPROSTHESIS WAS EXPLANTED: BONE DEFECTS AND MASSIVE METALLOSIS WERE FOUND INTRA-OPERATIVELY; EXTRACTION OF STEM WAS ONLY POSSIBLE WITH BONE FENESTRATION. A SPACER WAS IMPLANTED SO REIMPLANTATION SURGERY IS STILL PENDING. PATIENT CURRENT HEALTH STATUS IS NOT KNOWN.
