Event Description
|
It was reported that this patient had a hip revision 3 years post op.The x-ray control showed decentration of the prosthesis head and the ct then showed unusually large osteolysis in the acetabulum as a sign of inlay wear.This was verified during the prosthesis revision on (b)(6) 2023.Due to the size of the osteolysis and the resulting lack of cup anchoring, the cup was changed to a revision hip cup with a tab and iliac peg.Furthermore, the cysts in the socket were curetted and sealed using allogeneic spongiosa and the prosthetic head was changed.

Manufacturer Narrative

H3: a number of variables including use error, implant positioning, implant size selection, and patient factors (fitness for surgery, biomechanics, activity level and local tissue oxidation potential) could have all contributed to the increased trend in wear/osteolysis related complaints.The most likely cause for the revision reported due to early prosthesis wear and osteolysis in (b)(4) is a combination of the risk factors specified in the hhe.However, this cannot be confirmed from the reported information.
