Mine was a revision to my initial knee replacement. It started clunking within 2 weeks. It was unnerving to say the least. I just remember saying to my husband, "My knee is clunking. It is so weird but truly, it is clunking." Then to go to the surgeon and tell him, "It is clunking. I know it sounds weird but it is clunking." The surgeon knew immediately what it was and scheduled me for the outpatient procedure. Easiest ortho surgery ever. Good luck!

This article shows the procedure being done through arthrotomy (reopening the original surgical scar). Is that what you had that you call the easiest Ortho procedure ever? Or did you had the offending tissue through arthroscopy which is done thru 3 or 4 small port holes?
