Event or Problem Description
It was reported that the patient underwent a medical indicated revision surgery on the right hip on (b)(6) 2018.The revision surgery was performed due to dislocation.The head and liner were explanted.The index shell and the competitor stem remain implanted.All available information has been disclosed.If additional information should become available, a supplemental report will be submitted accordingly.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H3, h6: the device, used in treatment, was not returned for evaluation and the reported event could not be confirmed.The clinical/medical investigation concluded that, reportedly the revision was due to the posterior/superior dislocation; however, the clinical root cause of the reported dislocation could not be definitively concluded, although the reported lack of remaining posterior capsule structures and a large hematoma support the complaint.Of note, the patient does have a contralateral history of revisions due to dislocations, one notably during an attempt to don socks.The pathology diagnosis confirmed fibro-adipose tissue with partial synovial lining, underlying chronically inflamed granulation tissue, focal tissue necrosis, and areas of histiocytic reaction to foreign (focally polarizable) material (detritic synovitis)¿ with no evidence of significant acute inflammation; however, per documentation, the construct had only been in-vivo for approximately 7 weeks at the time of dislocation and subsequent revision.Additionally, the patient¿s rheumatic comorbidity, mixed manufacturer right hip-construct and previously revised/primary right hip-construct could not be ruled out as possible contributing factors to the reported events and findings and it could not be concluded that the reported clinical reactions were associated with a mal-performance of the s+n implants used in the mixed-manufacturer-construct.Patient impact assessed was the complication/development of right foot drop, dislocation, hematoma, continued signs of peri-prosthetic tissue reactions, and the revision.Further patient impact could not be determined.A review of the manufacturing records did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have caused or contributed to the reported incident.A review of complaint history did not reveal additional complaints for the listed batch.A review of the risk management file and instructions for use documents revealed this failure mode was previously identified.At this time, we have no reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.Possible causes could include but not limited to traumatic injury, surgical technique or size of device.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Without the return of the actual product involved, our investigation could not proceed.Should the device or additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for this complaint; however, we will continue to monitor for future complaints and investigate as necessary.We consider this investigation closed.
