Manufacturer Narrative
|
It was reported that a patient experienced loosening of an eleos canal filling stem and had patella tracking issues.The patient was revised on (b)(6) 2022, to remove and replace the loosened canal filling stem with a cemented stem.During the revision procedure, the tibial hinge component, axial pin, and poly spacer were replaced, and the surgeon implanted a resurfacing patella.There were no alleged issues reported with the tibial hinge component, axial pin, and poly spacer.The root cause of the canal-filling segmental stem loosening and patella tracking issue could not be determined.From communication with the field representative, it was reported that the patient was not compliant.It is possible that loosening could have occurred due to insufficient healing, residual post-operative motion, etc.However, a root cause could not be determined based on the available information.A review of the work order and sterilization batch release record for the product involved found no indication that the implant loosening was a result of a manufacturing or sterilization nonconformance.A complaint trend was not identified.
