Revision surgery performed on (b)(6) 2019 due to implant dislocation.Primary surgery was performed on (b)(6) 2019.According to the information reported, this patient had a fracture a few years ago that was plated but then failed, hence anatomic smr was implanted.It was reported that at that time, tuberosities had not healed yet.When smr anatomic dislocated, there was nearly no bone between the head and the stem as the tuberosities had eroded and not healed around the anatomic trauma body.It was reported that the plan was to leave the well fixed stem in situ but it easily pulled out when fixed to the trial reverse body.Therefore, the surgeon decided to upsize to a 16mm stem.The surgeon noted that the 15mm was possibly undersized and had been rotating inside the humeral canal as the canal was almost smooth hence used cement around the prosthesis for torsional stability.Event occurred in (b)(6).
