QID 218200 (Type "218200" in App Search)
A 62-year-old healthy female presents for her annual visit after undergoing a left total knee arthroplasty seven years ago. She states she was doing well until she sustained a fall four months ago. Since that time, she has endorsed weakness in her knee and significant limitations going up and down stairs. Her primary care doctor provided a physical therapy referral, which has not provided relief after 8 weeks of sessions. She is found to have a 30-degree extension lag with radiographs shown in Figures A and B. The patient's serum labs included ESR of 10 mm/hr (normal 0-22 mm/hr) and CRP of 1.1 mg/dL (normal <0.5mg/dL). A knee aspiration is performed resulting in negative alpha defensive, negative leukocyte esterase, synovial WBC of 1,200 cells/mL, and 78% neutrophils.
