Batch review performed on 05 march 2021: lot 146850: (b)(4) items manufactured and released on 08-jan-2015.Expiration date: 2019-11-30.No anomalies found related to the problem.To date, (b)(4) items of the same lot have been already sold.No other similar events have been reported on this lot since 2017.Clinical evaluation: 5 years after primary tha the patient reports with thigh pain.The radiographic image shows a diffused radiolucency around the stem, particularly in the proximal area, suggesting a radiographically loose stem, no mention of infection was recorded.We must therefore conclude that this case is due to aspetic loosening, which is a potential complication of hip arthroplasty, and causes remain often unknown.
