May need more surg: U obviously have mal alignment ; may need some more surg 2 correct or help. Could have had a head start if done @ time of injury. U may need more realignment of soft tissues proximately such as medial tightening. A distal boney realignment is hampered by the tibial stem of the component. It could still b done ; both injuries can heal @ the same time.
