Manufacturer Narrative

An event regarding femoral loosening involving a triathlon insert was reported.Conclusion: based on the information provided there is no indication or allegation that the device reported in this investigation contributed to the event and is therefore considered concomitant.During revision surgery, it is considered good surgical practice to always replace bearing components such as the tibial insert or hip liner including femoral head with new devices, also because service life damage or wear is not always readily visible and these components are usually modular and removal is easy and straightforward.No further investigation for this event is possible at this time.If additional information become available to indicate further evaluation is warranted, this record will be reopened.Patient would like to know if her implants were involved in a recall.It was confirmed that this device was not recalled.
