Suffering from Pain After Knee Replacement Surgery? It May Have Become Loose
New York Law Firm
Cementless knee replacements however, also carry risks. According to the study, titled "The High Failure Rate of a High-Flex Total Knee Arthroplasty Design", a cementless knee replacement can become loose producing pain that necessitates a revision. The study investigated knee replacements made by Zimmer. The knee replacement is known as NexGen CR-Flex. In the study, 36% of the knee replacements became loose and about 8% were revised for loosening that caused pain. The study noted that loosening of the knee implant was unrelated to the surgical approach used to implant the knee replacement. The study concluded by advising against the use of Zimmer NexGen CR-Flex knee replacements.
