The management of these bony defects can be surgically challenging and full revisions of well-fixed total knee components can lead to substantial bone loss. We present the case of a 71 year old man who developed knee pain and osteolysis around an uncemented total knee replacement. Due to significant medical comorbidies he was treated by percutaneous cyst granuloma debridement and grafting using an injectable calcium phosphate bone substitute. There were no wound complications and the patient was allowed to fully weight-bear post-operatively. Histopathology and microbiology of the cyst material confirmed polyethylene granulomata without any evidence of infection. At 6 weeks post-operatively the patient s previous knee pain had resolved he was able to comfortably fully weight-bear. Preoperative scores Knee Society Score KSS 41 WOMAC score and Oxford Knee Score 39 had all improved at the 12-month post-operative review KSS 76 WOMAC and Oxford Knee score 21 . This is a safe and effective technique with minimal morbidity and may be an appropriate treatment modality when more extensive revision surgery is not possible. The case is discussed with reference to the literature.
