Event or Problem Description
|
|
The patient reported to the hospital and was admitted to the orthopedics department due to pain and limb shortening.The performed diagnostics revealed incorrect positioning of the hip joint prosthesis components, in particular the stem and head (suspected stem fracture).During the revision of the hip arthroplasty, a partial fracture of the stem cone and significant abrasion on the surfaces of the stem cone, head and polyethylene insert was reported.During the revision procedure, the patient was fitted with the stryker system: restoration modular stem, ceramic head, polyethylene insert.Due to the correct seating, the acetabular element was left in the operator's decision.
