An event regarding disassociation and wear (trunnionosis) involving an accolade stem was reported.The event of wear was confirmed by evaluation of the returned device while disassociation was not confirmed.Method & results -product evaluation and results: the wear observed on the hip stem trunnion is consistent with loss of the taper lock between the stem trunnion and the femoral head.Eds showed the stem was consistent with an astm f1813 alloy.The material on the trunnion was consistent with an oxide/corrosion product and biological material.Based on the given information, no identifiable materials or manufacturing discrepancies were observed on the surfaces examined.-medical records received and evaluation: no medical records were received for review with a clinical consultant.-product history review: a review of the device manufacturing records indicate that all devices accepted into final stock were free from discrepancies.-complaint history review: there have been no other similar events for the lot referenced.Conclusions: evaluation of the retuned device revealed that the wear observed on the hip stem trunnion is consistent with loss of the taper lock between the stem trunnion and the femoral head.Eds showed the stem was consistent with an astm f1813 alloy.The material on the trunnion was consistent with an oxide/corrosion product and biological material.Based on the given information, no identifiable materials or manufacturing discrepancies were observed on the surfaces examined.The exact cause of the event could not be determined because insufficient information was provided.Further information such as pathology reports, pre- and post-operative x-rays and the primary operative report as well as patient history and follow-up notes are needed to complete the investigation for determining root cause.No further investigation for this event is possible at this time.If additional information becomes available to indicate further evaluation is warranted, this record will be reopened.
