Reported event: an event regarding dislocation involving a trident liner component was reported.The event was confirmed by medical review.Method & results: - material analysis, visual, functional and dimensional inspections could not be performed as the device remained implanted.-medical records received and evaluation: a review of the provided medical records by a clinical consultant indicated: confirmation: a revision surgery was performed for hip instability.Intraoperatively, trunnion corrosion was found.Increased metal levels, device recall, and/or injuries could not be confirmed without additional medical records.Root cause: root cause of the revision was hip instability.The implant position was not felt ideal intraoperatively which would be a primary cause for instability.Abductor and other soft tissue injuries that could lead to hip instability and which would be associated with corrosion products were not documented.Increased metal levels were not established, but if present would be associated with the trunnion corrosion.Records were not provided to establish injuries outside of the revision surgery and history of dislocation.The finding of trunnion corrosion would be associated with an lfit-accolade tmzf problem.-device history review: all devices were manufactured and accepted into final stock with no relevant reported discrepancies.-complaint history review: there have been 2 other similar events for the reported lot.These were for same patient but previous and subsequent dislocations, no actioned required.Conclusion: the event in this case was confirmed by medical review, the exact cause of the event could not be determined because insufficient information was provided.Additional information including operative reports, progress notes, x-rays and return of the device are needed to fully investigate the event.If further information becomes available or the product is returned, this investigation will be re-opened.
