Description of Event or Problem · 1

SURGEON CEMENTED IN A SIZE 1, 10 DIAMETER STEM AND IMPACTED A 38 +3 POLY, BUT POLY WOULD NOT SEAT. A NEW POLY WAS OPENED, BUT WOULD NOT SEAT. SURGEON DID NOT WANT TO GO TO A +6 POLY BECAUSE, HE FELT IT WOULD BE TOO TIGHT. A SIZE 8 STEM WAS OPENED TO TEST +3 POLY TO DETERMINE IF IT WAS THE STEM OR POLY THAT WAS BAD. THE POLY LOCKED INTO THE 8 STEM WITH NO DIFFICULTY, LEAVING THE SURGEON TO CONCLUDE THAT THE SIZE 10 STEM WHICH WAS ALREADY CEMENTED INTO THE PT WAS THE PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM RESULTED IN A 25-MIN EXTENSION OF SURGICAL TIME. (RIGHT SIDE).
