Event Description

When placing a anatomic radial head, the surgeon needed a 9mm long stem implant.However, only even number sized implants are available.The surgeon implanted a 10mm stem which sat slightly proud.Three weeks after implantation, it was determined that the joint was overstuffed.During revision surgery, the surgeon attempted to ream the bone again and fully seat the 10mm stem implant.This did not work.The stem was removed and a competitor's product was used.
