Additional Manufacturer Narrative

After further review of additional information received the following sections g3, g6, h2, h3 and h6 have been updated accordingly.(h3) the revision reported was likely the result of disassociation of the center cage from the polyethylene body.This may have occurred due to off-axis drilling or incomplete seating of the cage glenoid during implantation.However, this cannot be confirmed because no original post-operative or pre-revision radiographs were provided.The most probable root cause associated with the reported event of ¿prosthesis fracture¿ is associated with a partial or full-thickness crack in the device materials, either during implantation or sometime after.Do not use if broken device is a screw.
