Event Description

Complaint description from etq: 1217-11-058 x1 pinnacle acetabular shell 100 series (lot: 311131) was implanted as per surgical technique.Subsequently, surgeon attempted to screw in (1246-03-000) apex hole eliminator (lot: d13033399) into acetabular shell.However, the apex hole eliminator could not screw into threads of acetabular shell.Therefore, a second apex hole eliminator (lot: d13050493) was opened.This too could not be implanted.The surgeon then said, although he had never had this issue in his multiple prior cases, the threads of the acetabular shell must have been burred.The surgeon decided to not worry about using a hole eliminator and subsequently implanted a shell liner, as per surgical technique.The operation was completed with no further problems.
