Symptoms of an Attune knee replacement failure

When an Attune knee fails, you might experience any of the following symptoms:

  • Instability in the joint
  • Feeling like the knee joint is loose
  • Swelling around the joint or surgical site
  • Decreased range of motion in the knee
  • Persistent pain
  • Onset of new pain

In some rare cases, failure of the bone cement can cause Bone Cement Implantation Syndrome (BCIS).  This occurs rapidly when the joint first fails and can lead to obstructed blood vessels, stroke or heart attack.  If you or a loved experienced BCIS, it is important to contact an attorney to get fully compensated for the injury, or death, that may have resulted
