My 2nd opinion Ortho Dr is going to do a revision-will have to go through All of the TKR pain and pt again-and yes a part too large was put in, hence the excessive scar tissue.

I am a 56 year old male with my first TKR and am almost 4 month post op with only 90 degrees ROM. I have had a MUA 2 1/2 months ago and again, still no relief. I had a scar tissue issue 21 years ago after a ACL on the same knee, and my surgeon is saying that I am dealing with scar tissue this go around as well. My question is how your 2nd opinion surgeon determined that the wrong size hardware was installed and the procedure for that determination. Trying to find a surgeon for 2nd opinion around here is almost impossible. They will but not till after a 1 year anniversary from my TKR.
