Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional and/or corrected information.The revision reported was likely the result of full thickness prosthesis wear and cracking of the glenoid over the course of 10 years of implantation, possibly secondary to contributions from overstuffing of the joint.Prosthesis wear of the humeral head could not be confirmed as the device was not returned for evaluation.If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
