Manufacturer Narrative

H3: the revision reported was likely the result of an insufficient bond between the glenoid component and the patient¿s glenoid bone, which allowed for the component to loosen and become painful.The cause of the center cage disassociation cannot be determined from the information provided but may have occurred due to incomplete drilling or seating of the pegs/cage during implantation, malalignment of the cage relative to the peripheral pegs during implantation, or while removing the component during the revision surgery.
