Event Description
|
It was reported that the patient underwent a total shoulder arthroplasty using the eclipse system on (b)(6) 2020.Upon review of the post operative x-ray, on post-op day 1, it was noticed that the shoulder was dislocated.A second x-ray was performed the same day and it was confirmed that the shoulder was in fact dislocated.The patient was not able to remember when or how the shoulder may have dislocated.A revision tsa-humeral head exchange surgery was scheduled and performed on (b)(6) 2020 (post-op day 1).It was noted during the revision that the subscapularis repair was still in tact but had to be taken down to get the shoulder relocated.After the shoulder was relocated the eclipse humeral head, ar-9349-18 (lot 18.0147) was removed and the entire shoulder joint was evaluated for any possible problem.The surgeon then proceeded to trial three different humeral head sizes and settled on the most stable humeral head which was an ar-9349-20 (lot 1735002).A speedbridge technique was performed to repair the subscapularis.
