Surgeon planned for a right hip revision of a (b)(6) yrs old female.Patient had a p.F.C.Cemented hip, a pfc cup, pfc liner, 28+0 head and 2 screws.All removed and replaced with a revision.Had we been able to source a replacement pfc acetabular liner and all 28 and 32 pfc head options, this surgery would have taken 30 minutes instead of 4 hours.The surgeon was aware of the limited availability and his plan a if everything went well was just to change the pfc head with a 32+0 option (only one available) and a multi hole gription cup with a 32 altrx liner.However, patient was more unstable than expected so the surgeon removed the stem&cement, removed cup, liner, screws and head.Replaced with a stryker dm cup and a long cemented exeter.
