It was reported that in revising patient's right hip, rep discovered that the inner packaging of the intended implant was compromised.The outer box and outer packaging were reported to be intact and in good condition.Surgeon elected to not use the implant due to sterility concerns and instead revised patient to a proximal femoral device with a trochanter.As this implant is larger than the intended implant, surgeon reported difficulty in closing the wound as a soft tissue envelope had formed around the original implant.Rep reported a surgical delay of approximately 3 minutes.
