Section h10: (h3) the revision reported was likely the result of disassociation of the center cage and 2 of 3 peripheral pegs of the cage glenoid.The cause of the center cage/peg disassociation cannot be determined from the information provided but may have occurred due to incomplete drilling or seating of the pegs/cage during implantation.The exact events and order of events cannot be determined because no other x-rays were provided, such as original post-operative and follow-up views, and the revised components were not returned to exactech for evaluation.The following sections have corrected information: (h6) component code: 4315, cause not established.
