Event or Problem Description

|
The surgeon templated for a size 4/5 quadra std stem and broached up to a size 4 using a std lateral approach surgical technique.He performed a trial reduction and then double checked the torsional and lineal stability prior to calling for the definitive stem.Upon implantation of the size 4 stem he found it to subside approximately 1 cm.He then removed the stem and broached up to a size 5 and ultimately implanted that stem which sat 3mm deeper than broached.The surgeon felt that it was stable and accepted the position.
