Checking the manufacturing charts of the involved lot #1805916, no pre-existing anomaly was found on the 68 components manufactured with that lot #.According to our records, at least 56 out of 68 humeral heads with lot #1805916 and ster.1800148 have been implanted and this is the only complaint received on this lot #.Device analysis the items involved were not available to return to limacorporate for further analysis.X-rays analysis limacorporate received one x-ray referring to pre-operative revision surgery.The x-ray received - exact date unknown - has been evaluated by a medical consultant.Following, the medical consultant comments: "the radiograph shows a big bone resorption under the metaphyseal part of the prosthesis, which looks overstuffed (hard to tell with the amount of missing bone) and high riding (ahd is reduced indicating the rotator cuff failure).This is a fateful course of events after multiple operation post trauma.A surgeon issue is possible, but rather less important than the natural course.There is no implant-related problem here".Considering that: check of manufacturing charts highlighted no anomalies on components manufactured with lot #1805916; according to the surgeon responsible for the revision surgery, possibly the humerus was too high; according to the medical expert "the radiograph shows a big bone resorption under the metaphyseal part of the prosthesis, which looks overstuffed (hard to tell with the amount of missing bone) and high riding.This is a fateful course of events after multiple operation post trauma"; we can state that the event was not product related.Pms data according to limacorporate pms data, revision rate of humeral heads - belonging to the family codes 1322.09.Xxx - due to cuff failure is (b)(4).Based on the root cause analysis performed and according to the relevant pms data, no corrective actions required for this specific case.Limacorporate will continue monitoring the market to promptly detect any further similar issue.Note: this is a final mdr.
