Intra-operative issue occurred during hip surgery performed on the (b)(6) 2021.According to the information received, the mobile liner øint 28 mm ø42 mm (product code 5566.50.420 lot 20at5lh, ster.2100192) was damaged in the attempt to disassemble it from the head (fem.Modular head - m ø28mm, product code 5010.09.282, lot 1801390, ster.1800070).The liner-head construct had in fact been assembled incorrectly during the surgery.The consequence was a prolongation of the surgical time of approximately 45/60 minutes.Eventually it was decided to implant a 40mm mobile liner (product code 5566.50.401, lot 21at0sv, ster.2100243) and a ceramic head (product code 5010.42.282, lot 1780517, ster.1700135), with a spacer (product code 5885.15.510, lot 1511476, ster.2100161 - product not marketed in the us).In addition, it was reported that the metal liner for dual mobility was mistakenly not implanted and therefore the patient had to be revised few days later.The revision surgery was registered as medical complaint n.(b)(4) and reported to the fda by mfr #3008021110-2021-00104.Event occurred in (b)(6).
