Event or Problem Description

|
It was reported a patient underwent a left hip total arthroplasty.Subsequently, thirteen and half (13.5) years later, the patient's x-rays indicated a malpositioned acetabular cup and polyethylene wear.The patient underwent a left hip revision four (4) days later.The acetabular cup, liner and femoral head were revised.The cup and liner were noted to be a competitor's implants.Intraoperatively, it was noted the patient needed bone graft due to poly wear, osteolysis and cup removal.There was an unexpected surgical delay of 30-45 minutes reported due to the acetabular cup being loose and falling out.As a result, a full acetabular component revision was needed instead of the planned revision of just the polyethylene components and the femoral head exchange.The patient was last known to be in stable condition following the event.No additional information is available.

This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional and/or corrected information.The following sections were updated/corrected: d6a, h6 mdr section codes updated/corrected: a, b, c, e, f the revision reported was likely the result of prosthesis wear over the course of over 13 years of implantation, patient-related considerations, and a combination of risk factors: such as use error, implant positioning, implant size selection, and patient factors (fitness for surgery, biomechanics, activity level and local tissue oxidation potential) including impingement and edge loading.Acetabular cup loosening may be an additional reason for the reported revision, but this cannot be confirmed from the information provided as the devices were not returned for evaluation and no relevant clinical notes were provided.If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
