Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a 82 yo female patient, initial right shoulder implanted on (b)(6) 2017, underwent a revision procedure on (b)(6) 2024, approximately 6 years 3 months post the initial procedure.The revision was performed due to aseptic loosening of the humeral stem.The glenosphere was exchanged for an exactech device.The stem was removed and replaced by a competitor¿s product.There was no device breakages or surgical delays during the procedure.The patient was last known to be in stable condition following the event.No device returns for analysis anticipated as they were discarded by the hospital.No x-rays or device images were able to be obtained.No further information.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H3: the geosphere, liner and adapter tray were appropriately released for distribution.The reason for the patient's infection and subsequent revision procedure as related to the devices cannot be conclusively determined.There was no medical or clinical information provided.These devices are used for treatment not diagnosis.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H6: corrected the following: investigation findings, investigation conclusions manufacturer narrative updated: the revision reported was likely the result of an insufficient bond between the humeral stem and the bone, which led to aseptic (non-infected) humeral loosening.However, this cannot be confirmed as the devices were not returned for evaluation, and images and radiographs were unable to be obtained.
