This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional and/or corrected information.The revision reported was likely due to glenoid component wear.Additional reasons for the revision include an insufficient bond between the glenoid component and the bone and the humeral component and the bone leading to glenoid and humeral loosening respectively, possible fracture of the superior edge of the glenoid component, and/or the inclusion of the glenoid component in the packaging recall.However, these cannot be confirmed 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.
