    AS REPORTED, APPROXIMATELY 10 YEARS POST INITIAL RIGHT TKA, THIS (B)(6) FEMALE PATIENT WAS BROUGHT BACK WITH RIGHT KNEE PAIN. BONE SCAN SUGGESTED LOOSENING TO BOTH THE FEMORAL AND TIBIAL COMPONENTS. THE INSERT WAS REMOVED WITH SIGNS OF WEAR. THE TIBIA WAS CHECKED AND FOUND TO BE LOOSE AND REMOVED. THE FEMUR CHECKED AND REMOVED AS WELL. DUE TO THE LARGE AMOUNT OF BONE LOSS ON THE FEMUR, THE PATIENT RECEIVED A COMPETITOR'S DISTAL FEMORAL KNEE REPLACEMENT. THERE WAS NO BREAKAGE OF DEVICE. THERE WAS A 45 MINUTE SURGICAL DELAY/PROLONGATION. THIS TURNED INTO A MORE COMPLICATED SURGERY THAN EXPECTED DUE TO OSTEOLYSIS TO THE FEMUR AND TIBIA. PATIENT WAS LAST KNOWN TO BE IN STABLE CONDITION FOLLOWING THE EVENT. X-RAYS AND PHOTOS RECEIVED. THE DEVICES WILL BE RETURN. AS PER SURGEON: "THIS TURNED INTO A MORE COMPLICATED SURGERY THAN EXPECTED DUE TO OSTEOLYSIS TO THE FEMUR AND TIBIA."
