InjurySep 5, 2019Degraded; Naturally Worn; Degraded; Naturally Worn
A SCORPIO TKR REQUIRED A CHANGE OF POLY LINER FOR POLY WEAR. THE ORIGINAL COMPONENT WAS IMPLANTED ON (B)(6) 2005. IN THE PROCESS OF CHANGING THE POLY LINER, THE SERIES 7000 CEMENTED BASEPLATE WAS ALSO FOUND TO BE LOOSE. IT CAME OUT WITH NO CEMENT ADHERING TO IT, ALTHOUGH THE CEMENT BONE INTERFACE WAS INTACT. THE SURGEON REQUESTED NO TIBIAS OR FEMURS BE SENT. AS THERE WAS NO REPLACEMENT TIBIA ON HAND, THE EXISTING TIBIA WAS RE-CEMENTED IN PLACE. A NEW 12MM PS POLY WAS IMPLANTED, AND THE PATELLA WAS RESURFACED USING A SZ 5 SCORPIO PATELLA. ONLY THE INSERT IS AVAILABLE FOR RETURN. THE TIBIA WAS RE IMPLANTED. THERE ARE NO OTHER NOTES ETC AVAILABLE. THE X-RAY WAS TAKEN ON (B)(6) 2019.
