ONCE INSIDE THE SURGEON NOTICED A LARGE PSEUDOTUMOR AND NUMEROUS SIMILAR MEMBRANES. THE PRIMARY DIAGNOSIS WAS LOOSENING OF THE STEM AS IT APPEARS TO HAVE SUBSIDED CAUSING THE SECONDARY DIAGNOSIS OF INSTABILITY. SO ABOUT 7 MONTHS AFTER PRIMARY THE SURGEON REMOVED THE STEM AND DUE TO THE PSEUDOTUMOR AND REACTION IN THE JOINT HE DECIDED TO ALSO REMOVE THE CUP. THE SURGEON SUGGESTED THAT THERE IS EVIDENCE OF IMPINGEMENT OF THE NECK AND THE SIDE OF THE CUP. ALL MEDACTA COMPONENTS WERE REMOVED AND OTHER COMPANY IMPLANTS WERE IMPLANTED.
