I think that you must change this implant and use a hinge type implant.
Probably, a Hinge (Zimmer) or a RT-Plus (Smith and Nephew). This implant solve the problem a instability in the medial o lateral ligament of the knee

dear sir,
thank you for showing the medial instability after TKR for this lady. if there is only valgus /varus instabilty for this patient may be a revision TKR with constrained prosthesis from zimmer nexgen LCCK or any other revision knee system with constrained prosthesis with longer femoral and tibial stems is the one option i can think of although i must admit i don't have my personal experiance regarding the constrained prosthesis at the moment. kindly inform what
do u think.
thanking you,
yours sincerely,
Dr.Rajkmar Thangaraj.

i agree with previous authors
there are only 3 ways to handle the problem, the first is to leave it as it is (using crutches along with a constrained knee brace); the second is another revision & using a constrained or hinged revision knee prosthesis, in this case the severity of bone loss is crucial, so don't forget about it; & the third is arthrodesis as the last resort
