Allegedly, the patient has been suffering moderate pain, and the implants were revised for metallosis, according to the surgeon.The modular neck trunion (fitting in to the stem pocket) was noticeably "blackened".All implants were removed, and replaced with a thr cement spacer.Unfortunately it wasn't possible to remove the liner from the procotyl l shell, so i cant provide the lot number for the biolox liner.
