Event or Problem Description

This pi is for the intra-operative events that occurred during the revision surgery: while removing the anato stem, an intra-operative femoral fracture occurred and was treated with 2 cables from hospital inventory and implanting a restoration modular stem construct.While implanting a 48mm shell, the shell passed through the patient's acetabulum (surgeon reported this was due to poor bone quality).The surgeon went to a 50 multihole shell with 4 screws.The screws didn't provide adequate fixation in the surgeon's opinion (due to the patient's poor bone quality), so the 50mm shell was cemented in instead.Rep provided the primary and revision usage sheets and confirmed that no further information will be released by the hospital or surgeon.
