An unknown office seeked for assistance at johnson and johnson medical devices emea.They wrote: "dear sir or madam, our client was the victim of an attempted homicide and has been unable to move her right arm since the implantation of a shoulder tep.In the meantime, she has already had several revisions performed on the right side, all of which were of no avail.The tep continues to dislocate.Most recently, she was implanted with the prosthesis from the company exactech, model equinox reverse.The stem is still from the company delta x-tend.As the manufacturer, can you identify and name the recurrent dislocation problem? is it possible that the two components do not harmonize with each other? can you name several doctors in germany who regularly work with these prostheses and could eliminate the problem? thank you very much for your efforts.With kind regards matterne & partner".
