Manufacturer Narrative

Preliminary investigation performed by (b)(4) project manager.From the received information it is not possible to determine the root cause of the event; no photos and parts were received, only general information regarding the liner still assembled with the head.Toggle was noticed between dm liner and femoral head; a certain clearance is present between the two components as design specification: it is not clear if the clearance noticed on the parts was the standard clearance according to the specifications or a wider one due to liner wear.For these reasons we cannot state with certainty the root cause of the event.
