Correction: h6 - health effect/clinical code, component code additional information: d9 - device receipt h3 - the revision reported was likely the result of extensive eccentric wear of the glenoid component, which led to disassociation of the center cage from the polyethylene body and loosening of the glenoid component from the glenoid bone.Patient conditions, including patient weight and a possible rotator cuff deficiency/tear, likely contributed to the loosening, and the wear and damage observed on the returned device.H6 - medical device problem codes, investigation codes.
