  • Cause
    Following an investigation it has been identified that the component level lots were mixed during manufacturing. if the surgeon intended to implant a 34b but actually implanted a 38c, the potential adverse health outcome is a thin cement mantel which may lead to a revision, if the cement mantel were to crack. additionally, the vertical and horizontal offsets may be larger than expected which may cause the patient to have potential leg length discrepancy and improper soft tissue tension (too tight). if the surgeon intended to implant a 38c but actually implanted a 34b, the potential adverse health outcome is the vertical and horizontal offsets may be smaller than expected which may cause the patient to have potential leg length discrepancy.
