Product complaint # (b)(4).Investigation summary: the device associated with this report was received for examination.Visual examination of the returned liner confirmed a remarkable worn condition.Also, there was found evidence signs that poly liner and cup underwent a disassociation event.Although that it is not unreasonable that noise would be present due to the ceramic head articulating against the metal cup, it cannot be confirmed that liner was causing an interacting sound post disassociation event.Depuy synthes considers the investigation closed at this time.Should additional information be received, the information will be reviewed, and the investigation may be re-opened as necessary.Device history lot: the product investigation found no evidence suspecting an error in the manufacturing or material that would be a contributing factor in the reported allegation(s).A manufacturing records evaluation (mre) was not performed.
