It was reported that this patient had her hip replaced on (b)(6) 2020.The reason for the der is to question if the implant is with in specifications.The surgeon broached up to a sz 2 and trialed a standard offset.The trial reduction felt good to the surgeon, so a sz 2 std summit implant was opened and dispensed to the sterile field.When the stem was implanted the surgeon said the implant was sitting lower than the broach and the surgeon felt it was unacceptable.The implant was removed, a sz 2 broach was put back in the canal and did not sit as low as the implant.A size 3 broach was inserted into the femur and provided a better fit, so a size 3 standard summit stem was implanted.No adverse events occurred , the case proceeded and finished as normal.No surgical delay.
