    IT WAS REPORTED THAT THE PATIENT UNDERWENT LEFT HIP TOTAL HIP ARTHROPLASTY TWENTY-EIGHT DAYS AGO. THE PATIENT HAD ALREADY CONFIRMED THE USE OF FORTY-SIX MM ACETABULAR CUP AND THE CORRESPONDING LINER, HOWEVER DURING IMPLANTATION THE SURGEON FOUND THAT THE LINER COULD NOT BE MATCHED TO THE OUTER CUP SIZE AND THE LINER COULD NOT BE STRUCK INTO PLACE AFTER A FEW TRIES, AND BY THIS TIME, THE PATIENT HAD ALREADY SUFFERED FROM A BONE FRACTURE. AFTER REMOVING THE OUTER CUP, IT WAS NECESSARY TO USE A PERCUSSION DISK TO STRIKE THE OUTER CUP OUTSIDE THE PATIENT'S BODY, AND THE SHALLOW THREADS ON THE HEAD OF THE OUTER CUP CONNECTING ROD COULD NOT BE MATCHED WITH THE PERCUSSION DISK. IMMEDIATELY AFTER IMPLANTING THE CUP AGAIN WITH A FORTY-EIGHT MM OUTER CUP, THE BOTTOM OF THE ACETABULUM WAS PIERCED DURING LINER STRIKING, AND THE CUP WAS UNSTABLE, SO THE ACETABULAR CUP SIZE WAS ENLARGED WITH A FIFTY-SIX MM OUTER CUP BEFORE IT WAS PLACED SECURELY, AND A 190/20 STEM WAS USED TO EXPAND THE FEMORAL SIDE OF THE ACETABULUM, WHICH WAS ALSO SMALL. SURGEON USED A CEMENTED FILLER AND PLACED THE 190/20 STEM, HOWEVER DUE TO THE HEIGHT PROBLEM, THE BOTTOM OF THE ACETABULUM AND THE ACETABULAR RIM WERE DAMAGED

    Patient problems: Bone Fracture(s); Hemorrhage/Blood Loss/Bleeding
