Event Description

It was reported that a reverse total shoulder was performed on (b)(6), 2021.The index procedure was without complications and the ar-9504m-04 glenosphere was implanted utilizing the indicated techniques and check of morse taper engagement.It was discovered during a routine visit via a follow-up x-ray that the glenosphere did not appear to be seated properly.On (b)(6) 2021 the patient was brought back to the operating room for a revision surgery.During the revision surgery, the glenosphere was found to no longer be engaged.The surgeon felt that the original glenosphere may have wedged into the baseplate on the original operation.The decision was made to implant a new glenosphere of the same size.After impaction, the morse taper was again checked in multiple plains and felt to be engaged.A new suture cup was then placed along with a new poly insert and the patient was taken to the recovery room without complications.
