Manufacturer Narrative

The event was not confirmed.Visual inspection: the devices showed signs of normal wear/use.Dimensional inspection: not performed as the device was returned in a worn/used condition and therefore will not meet dimensional specifications.In addition, discussions with the sales rep disclosed that the dr.(b)(6) considers this event to be a non issue at this point as he is now satisfied with the fit of the accolade broaches.Functional inspection: not performed because the event occurred in vivo and therefore functionality could not be duplicated.The event could not be confirmed nor the root cause of the reported event determined due to the minimal information received.No further investigation for this event is possible at this time as insufficient information was received by stryker orthopaedics.If additional information becomes available, this investigation will be reopened.
