An event regarding a periprosthetic fracture four weeks following a total hip arthoplasty involving a trident shell was reported.The event was confirmed.It was also noted through the medical review that the shell was malpositioned.Conclusions: a medical review was performed and concluded that "an adverse mix of patient-related (osteoporosis and acetabular dysplasia) and procedure-related factors (surgical preparation in osteoporotic bone) have caused a periprosthetic fracture of the acetabulum without dislocation allowing conservative treatment without revision surgery required." there was no evidence of a device related issue on review of the medical review.No further investigation for this event is possible at this time.If additional information and/or device become available, this investigation will be reopened.
