Manufacturer Narrative
An investigation is being performed in an attempt to identify the cause of the event.Should additional information become available it will be reported in a supplemental report.Review of the device history records indicate devices were manufactured and accepted into final stock with no relevant reported discrepancies.Device not returned.
 
Event Description
As reported by surgeon: "this patient of mine with a long distal femur noticed an abrupt change in rotation of her leg.There was no antecedent trauma.She has had a couple of falls but x-rays following that looked unchanged.A powerpoint was put together with x-rays and fluoro images we took yesterday under anesthesia.I will also send a clinical video i took on my phone.We will be sending her cd with the images to you today.Need help in sorting out what has changed with her implant." a powerpoint with imaging adds "mid-april: she was in bed, reached behind her back to move a pillow, when she moved the leg and felt a painless pop.She immediately noticed that her leg was more externally rotated.".
 
Manufacturer Narrative
Reported event: an event regarding disassociation (and consequent rotation) involving a jts distal femur was reported.The event was confirmed by medical review.Method and results: product evaluation and results: not performed since no items were returned.Clinician review: the implant in situ was for a jts distal femoral replacement which was inserted in (b)(6) 2019.The surgeon reported that the patient had an abrupt change in rotation of the knee joint without obvious trauma for this incidence but has several falls in the past.The x-rays provided showed that the femoral component has externally rotated but the femoral and tibial components are engaged.The newly supplied ct scan suggested that the shrink fit between the inner piston and the collar device might fail, which is evidenced by the rotated position of the keyway which is supposed to be on the front.However, this possible failure mode needs to be confirmed by the retrieved implant.The above radiographic observation can confirm the clinical report.Product history review: review of the product history records indicate 1 was manufactured and accepted into final stock on 16oct2019 with no reported discrepancies.Complaint history review: there has been 1 other event.Conclusions: an event regarding disassociation (and consequent rotation) involving a jts distal femur was reported.The event was confirmed by medical review.The exact cause of the event could not be determined because further information such as retrieval analysis are needed to complete the investigation for determining root cause.No further investigation for this event is possible at this time as no devices and/or insufficient information was received by siw.If devices and/or additional information become available to indicate further evaluation is warranted, this record will be re-opened.
