Manufacturer Narrative

Product complaint (b)(4).Investigation summary : according to the information received, "surgery delay : no revision surgery : yes.Reason for revision surgery : as per images attached, ard¿s have fractured off, one fractured ard was found during revision".¿the product was not returned to depuy synthes, however photos were provided for review.See attachment (b)(4), (b)(4) re product complaint - marathon 3656 liners).The photo investigation revealed that pinn mar neut 36idx56od was observed fractured, since only in the photo 2 of 6 ard's are observed, therefore, the reported condition can be confirmed.The potential cause cannot be determined with the provided information.Since the device was not returned, a dimensional inspection cannot be performed.The overall complaint was confirmed as the observed condition of the pinn mar neut 36idx56od would contribute to the complained device issue.Based on the investigation findings, a potential cause cannot be determined with the information provided and it has been determined that no corrective and/or preventative action is proposed.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.

Event Description

Additional information received from sales rep: information received from surgeon 'liners in place in situ but deformed and rotating freely and lugs destroyed.' please update liner for deformed/bent, implant disassociation and add ip for cup for disassociation.

Manufacturer Narrative

Product complaint # (b)(4).This report is being submitted pursuant to the provisions of 21 cfr, part 803.This report may be based on information which has not been investigated or verified prior to the required reporting date.This report does not reflect a conclusion by depuy synthes joint reconstruction, or its employees that the report constitutes an admission that the product, depuy synthes joint reconstruction, or its employees caused or contributed to the potential event described in this report.If information is obtained that was not available for the initial report, a follow-up report will be filed as appropriate.

Manufacturer Narrative

Product complaint # (b)(4).Investigation summary : according to the information received, as per images attached, ard¿s have fractured off, one fractured ard was found during revision.The product and photographic evidence were returned to depuy synthes for evaluation.The depuy synthes team conducted a visual inspection of the returned device and from the provided attachment (b)(4).Visual analysis of the returned sample and review of the photographic evidence revealed that the rim of the pinn mar neut 36idx56od had four (4) anti-rotation device (ard) tabs sheared off, broken fragments were not returned for evaluation and cannot be seen on the provided photo.Additionally, a slightly deformation was observed on the edge of the liner.Based on the observations, it is reasonable to conclude that a disassociation event occurred between the liner and the cup.With the information provided is not possible to determine a potential cause at this moment.The mode of failure of the device is multi-factorial and consideration must be given to all other potential influences such as surgical process, patient variables (e.G.Activity level and use), anatomical considerations and patient changes over time.Any conclusions from the investigational input provided have to be placed into context with all other relevant factors.A dimensional inspection for the pinn mar neut 36idx56od was unable to be performed due to post manufacturing damage.A manufacturing record evaluation was performed for the finished device [[121936056 / 4091690] number, and no non-conformances / manufacturing irregularities related to the malfunction were identified during manufacturing.The overall complaint was confirmed as the observed condition of the pinn mar neut 36idx56od would contribute to the complained device issue.Based on the investigation findings, a potential cause cannot be determined with the information provided and it has been determined that no corrective and/or preventative action is proposed.Additional monitoring for any potential safety signals will be conducted through complaint trending and other post-market safety surveillance activities.Device history lot : a manufacturing record evaluation was performed for the finished device [[121936056 / 4091690] number, and no non-conformances / manufacturing irregularities related to the malfunction were identified during manufacturing.
