As reported by the germany competent authorities and as part of the manufacturer's recall campaign, the patient went to have both hip prostheses checked (left implanted in 2019, right in 2021).The x-ray and ct check showed clear decentration both prosthetic heads with unusually large osteolysis in both acetabula as a sign of premature inlay wear.First, the right side was revised on (b)(6) 2023.The suspected diagnosis was confirmed and the inlay was replaced with a specially approved vitd-hardened one inlay (novation xle, neutral liner, group 3, 36 mm i.D., ref 140-36-53, sn (b)(6)).As part of the exchange operation, in addition to the inlay exchange, the solid cup integrity was determined as well as curettage and sealing of the cysts in the socket using allogeneic cancellous bone and changing the prosthetic head.The explants are currently with hospital and will be returned to the patient at their own request handed out.No further information provided.
