Manufacturer Narrative

Product complaint # (b)(4).This report is being submitted pursuant to the provisions of 21 cfr, part 803.This report may be based on information which has not been investigated or verified prior to the required reporting date.This report does not reflect a conclusion by depuy synthes joint reconstruction, or its employees that the report constitutes an admission that the product, depuy synthes joint reconstruction, or its employees caused or contributed to the potential event described in this report.If information is obtained that was not available for the initial report, a follow-up report will be filed as appropriate.

Event Description

Clinical records, from clinical visits on (b)(6) 2021 and on (b)(6) 2021, reported that the patient had a failed total hip with a protrusio cage pelvic construct, with the cage having fractured partially and migrated into the pelvic cavity.X-rays demonstrated this.The patient was experiencing only minor pain and discomfort, and some sciatica, despite this, and was ambulatory and capable of modified activities of daily living using appliances.The surgeon indicated that the progression of the cage's failure might have reached an endpoint, as the patient's trochanter was now impinging on the pelvic wing, preventing the femoral head from encroaching into the pelvis any further.As a consequence, the patient's leg was shortened.A ct scan had been ordered to be certain that the cage was not threatening any major pelvic blood vessels.The plan at present is to hold off on doing any surgical intervention, as this is considered a very high risk surgery due to the approach requiring involvement with intrapelvic tissues, vessels, and organs.

Manufacturer Narrative

Product complaint # (b)(4).Investigation summary : no device associated with this report was received for examination.Examination of the provided x-ray images find sufficient evidence to confirm the reported observation.There is unknown secondary acetabular bone repair product implanted in addition to the depuy protrusio cage and bone screws.Use of these depuy devices is indicative of pre-existing problems associated with patient acetabular bone condition.Product error is not identified.The information received will be retained for potential series investigations if triggered by trend analysis, post market surveillance, or other events within the quality system.Depuy considers the investigation closed.Should additional information be received, the information will be reviewed, and the investigation will be re-opened as necessary.
