| Core Tip |
Metallosis describes the build-up of metal debris in the soft tissues after a period of metal on metal articulation. This can present acutely, as in this case, or gradually. This case report highlights how a metal clip used to hold the polyethylene liner to the tibial base plate broke 5 years after implantation, dislodged from its original position and went on to cause post-operative knee metallosis. The success to this patient’s management came from thorough debridement, and replacement of the components involved. |
