Event Description
|
It was reported that the insert in question cracked leaving the head stuck without the patient making excessive efforts.When we receive the implants, we checked them and we are trying to understand the number described in the head, because it is different from the lot identified in the external box and our traceability records; we would like to know if something different may have occurred in relation to this implant, in order to be identified differently than usual.

Product complaint # (b)(4).Investigation summary : the device associated with this report was returned to depuy synthes for evaluation.Visual examination of the returned liner finds a fracture at the rim of the liner.It is evident that the edge of the liner was loaded by the femoral head and patient body weight while implanted.There are machining lines from the manufacturing process yet visible within the liner which would not be as obviously present had the femoral head been more centrally loaded.Based on the observations, it is reasonable to conclude that a disassociation event occurred.However, no signs of inability of disassemble were observed on the implant.Additional monitoring for any potential safety signals will be conducted through complaint trending and other post-market safety surveillance activities.Device history lot : the product investigation found no evidence suspecting an error in the manufacturing or material that would be a contributing factor in the reported allegation(s).A manufacturing records evaluation (mre) was not performed.
