Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that during an initial implantation, the surgeon fractured the anterior cortex of the patient's glenoid.Subsequently, the surgeon opted to leave the patient's joint loose in order to allow the bone to heal with the intention of revising the patient at a later time to re-tension the shoulder.The patient was revised approximately two (2) months later, where a new glenosphere and humeral poly were also exchanged to provide additional stability.Attempts have been made and no further information has been provided.
