Manufacturer Narrative

Product complaint # (b)(4).If information is obtained that was not available for the initial medwatch, a follow-up medwatch will be filed as appropriate.

Event Description

It was reported that on (b)(6) 2003, the primary surgery was performed with the stem, head and cup.The patient was in his 30s at the time.On (b)(6) 2021, the revision surgery was performed due to pain.In the revision, the head and cup were removed together.When the surgeon tried to remove the stem, the stem couldn¿t be removed.When the surgeon grabbed the stem neck, the stem neck was damaged.The surgeon gave up removing the stem and move to head selection, but there were few variations of heads that could be selected.The patient was young in his 50s, but the surgeon had no choice but to choose a metal head.The placement position of the cup also needed to be adjusted according to the stem currently in place, and thus, could not be placed at the optimum position.The movement of the implant is slightly tight, which is worrisome.Consequently, optimal treatment could not be provided.The surgery was completed with more than 30minutes delay.The surgeon commented as follows.With head variation, he was able to provide optimal treatment for patients without increasing operation time.Although it is a discontinued product, it is the present time to make a revision, and it seems that the fact that there are few variations in the head does not fulfill the responsibility of the manufacturer.Even if revenue cannot be expected, the manufacturer should have additional options to deal with various revisions.No further information is available.
