Manufacturer Narrative

Examination of the returned liner does find evidence of poly material wear.Based on the information available it is believed the liner was implanted for more than ten years.No unusual wear for that length of time was identified.No oxidation as suggested by the surgeon was identified.A review of the device history records found no related deviations or anomalies.Based on previous investigations this complication of joint replacement is unlikely to have been the result of a device failing to meet required specifications.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.Corrective action was not indicated.Depuy considers the investigation closed.Should additional information be received, the information will be reviewed and the investigation will be re-opened as necessary.
