Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional information.Multiple mdr reports were filed for this event, please see associated reports: 0001822565-2022-01261-2.Visual review of the liner confirms it is fractured.Nicks, gouges, scratches, and deformation are noted.Fractured edges are worn down.The liner was sent to sem for fracture analysis.Results: the hip liner was significantly edge-loaded due to a dislocation or misalignment, which resulted in high wear and deformation to the liner rim and eventually liner rim fracture.Review of complaint history identified additional similar complaints for the reported liner and no additional complaints for the reported part and lot combination.Root cause unchanged.If any further information is found which would change or alter any conclusions or information, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.Zimmer biomet will continue to monitor for trends.
