Retained distal femoral osteophyte. An infrequent cause of postoperative pain following total knee arthroplasty.

D A Dennis1, M Channer.   

Abstract

Persistent postoperative pain following total knee arthroplasty is infrequent. This case report describes an unusual cause of pain, crepitus, and effusion following total knee arthroplasty due to a retained distal femoral osteophyte. Osteophyte removal resulted in total alleviation of this patient's discomfort and swelling.
