Manufacturer Narrative

An event regarding wear and disassociation involving an accolade stem that was mated with a lfit v40 cocr head was reported.The event was confirmed.Method & results: device evaluation and results: the reported device was not returned however photographs were provided for review.The photographs show a recently explanted head, stem, shell and liner with body fluids on it.The head seemed to be removed still seated onto the trunnion of the stem.However, once removed from the stem in a second photo, there is evidence of wear of the trunnion, black tissue and the taper of the head appears dark in colour.Clinician review: a review of the provided medical records by a clinical consultant indicated: 'this case concerns a patient who underwent a primary cementless total hip arthroplasty in 2008 and then approximately 18 years later developed head neck disassociation with metallosis requiring revision surgery.I can confirm that the patient underwent a primary total hip replacement and sustained a head neck disassociation since i was able to review x-rays showing the implants.I cannot confirm the revision surgery since i have no documentation such as office notes, operation note or post revision x-rays.The root causes of had neck disassociation with metallosis are multifactorial including surgical technique factors, trunnion and head preparation prior to implantation, patient factors such as activity level and bmi, and implant factors.The explanted femoral prosthesis and femoral head should be submitted to stryker engineers for examination and evaluation.' device history review: all devices were manufactured and accepted into final stock with no relevant reported discrepancies.Complaint history review: no other similar events were reported for the lot.Conclusion: the reported accolade stem was mated with a lfit v40 cocr head.The cocr head has been identified to be within scope of nc and capa.No further investigation for this event is possible at this time.If devices and/or additional information become available to indicate further evaluation is warranted, this record will be reopened.
