This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional and/or corrected information.The following sections were updated: g3/g4, h6.The following sections were corrected: h6.Mdr section codes updated/corrected: b, c, d.The reason for the revision reported cannot be confirmed from the information provided but may be the result of an insufficient bond between the glenoid component and the bone, which led to aseptic (non-infected) anatomic glenoid loosening.An additional contributing factor may have been inclusion of the polyethylene in the packaging recall.Potential contributions of user and patient-related considerations to the event could not be assessed as the devices were not available for evaluation and images, radiographs, and relevant clinical information were not provided.If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
