Event Description
|
This case is logged to capture the revision mentioned in (b)(4).The base of the handle of the stem inserter became loose, allowing it to slide down the shaft of the inserter, after the surgeon hammered it (in the correct location) in an attempt to remove a stem.This occurred during a revision case where a global ap was being removed.The surgeon was able to use other instruments within our shoulder extraction trays to successfully remove the stem and complete the operation successfully.The revision was due to the patient experiencing stiffness due to arthrofibrosis with a small degree of cuff damage.The cause of the revision did not have anything to do with the implants themselves.Right shoulder.
