The reported event could be confirmed, since images of ct scans were provided and matches the alleged failure mode.A medical professional reviewed the received information and noted the following: "the provided ct-slices suggest osteolysis around the talar component, this could be a reason for revision, especially if the patient has pain and loss of function.I have noticed the arthrodesis of the mid- and hindfoot, that will reduce the ability of the foot to adapt to positional changes of the ankle and the forefoot.To assess the effect of this on the tar-position and function needs to be assessed by physical examination of the patient¿s foot and ankle.This information is not available at this moment." more detailed information about the complaint event as well as the affected device must be available in order to determine the root cause of the complaint event.A review of the device history was not possible because the lot number was not communicated.No corrective actions are required at this time.A review of the labeling did not indicate any abnormalities.No indications of material, manufacturing or design related problems were found during the investigation.If the device is returned or if any additional information is provided, the investigation will be reassessed.
