(b)(4) final report.The appropriate device details were provided and the relevant device manufacturing records have been identified and reviewed.It was found that the trinity handle conformed to material and dimensional specification at the time of manufacture.During the manufacturing process of the trinity cups it was found that a chamfer existed at the base of the thread.This non-conformance was risk assessed and accepted.Additionally this deviation would not have led to the reported event.The devices were reviewed at corin, it was found that the handle and cup could be attached and detached with no issue.However, it was identified that the threaded section of the trinity handle had become damaged.If these threads had been damaged and not identified by the surgeon prior to attaching the cup, it could have led to cross threading and the reported event.Corin are researching a new design for this handle, including a new thread.Based on the above, this case is now considered closed.Please note: this report is filed with the fda due to an adverse experienced with a device that is similar to those placed on the market in the usa, however, this event occurred outside of the usa.The submission of this report does not constitute an admission that the device, reporting entity, entity's representative or distributor caused or contributed to this event.
