Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported the patient underwent left tha due to femoral neck fracture.Subsequently, patient was revised two days later due to an iatrogenic acetabular fracture.The patient underwent a second revision approximately 4 months later due to pain and instability with placement of a custom cage and constrained liner.During the revision, significant scarring was noted which prompted the removal of the femoral component.The acetabular component was found well fixed and ingrown.The cemented liner was removed as well as the cup.Backing out the screws was not possible, so the surgeon cut them with a bur so that the custom cage could be placed.Due to intraoperative complications, only the custom cage, liner, and screws were placed.The wound was closed without femoral components in place, and the patient was transferred to the critical care unit.Attempts have been made and additional information on the reported event is unavailable at this time.
