Additional Manufacturer Narrative

This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional and/or corrected information.The reason for the revision reported was likely due to prothesis wear caused by rotator cuff insufficiencies, relative positioning of implants, and/or the inclusion of the polyethylene in the packaging recall.Additionally, this glenoid component appears to have been implanted over ten years prior to the reported event.However, the cause of the wear can not be confirmed from the provided information as the device was not returned for evaluation.Potential user and patient-related considerations to the event could not be assessed from the provided information.If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
