Weight updated.An event regarding pain involving a dall miles plate was reported.The event was not confirmed.Device evaluation not performed as the reported device was not returned for evaluation.A medical review was performed and concluded.Both the primary and revision total hip arthroplasty components in this case are from biomet.The only stryker product is a dall-miles cable grip with two cables, which successfully repaired the trochanteric osteotomy at the revision surgery.A dhr review indicated all devices were manufactured and accepted into final stock with no reported discrepancies.A complaint history review indicated there have been no other events for the reported lot.A medical review was performed and indicated that x-rays demonstrate the device remained stable and intact and is unlikely related to any symptoms in this patient.No further investigation is required at this time.
