The revision reported may have been due to loosening and infection as reported.Secondary findings include prosthesis wear and fracture of the glenoid component, likely due to proximal migration of the humeral components relative to the glenoid and/or off-axis drilling of the peripheral pegs holes resulting in a rocking horse effect around a well-fixed cage.However, loosening, infection, and the series of events could not be confirmed from the provided information.Potential contributions of user and patient-related considerations to the event could not be assessed as the devices were not available for evaluation and initial post-operative radiographs were not provided.B3: corrected.D1: corrected.D4: corrected.G4: corrected.H4: corrected.H6: corrected health effect, component, and investigation clinical codes.
