Contra-Indications

If you've been implanted with a Repicci knee replacement which has failed, you may be eligible to file a lawsuit and get compensation for your pain and suffering. Take the first step today by filling out this simple form.

An open infection in the operative area is generally regarded as an absolute contra-indication to total knee replacement. A source of infection somewhere else on the body is a relative contra-indication. Poor general medical status, mental illness or inability to cooperate with post operative restrictions are relative contra-indications.

Weitz & Luxenberg is no longer accepting new Repicci Knee Replacement cases.
