Event or Problem Description
It was reported that during a tka surgery after cutting through the visionaire block, when the surgeon put the metal-distal cut block on the pins from the visionaire block, he found out that it took about 4 mm more bone on the distal cut.The surgeon always does a "clean up cut" with the metal distal cut block and he did not catch it until he already took some bone, so he had to go with it.They checked to make sure the pins were in the correct holes on the distal cutting block.The doctor thinks there was a few extra millimeters than usual between the cutting slot and the pin holes on the visionaire block.The procedure was completed, with a non-significant delay, using the same device.The only known modification done on the surgical procedure was using a larger polyethene insert than initially planned.Patient is currently healthy.

Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Section h3, h6: the associated device was returned and evaluated.A visual inspection of the returned device did not reveal the stated failure mode.The engineering evaluation found that the distal portion of the femur was under segmented, contributing to the device's defective properties.No complaint history is available for this part as this is a custom-made device.The clinical/medical evaluation concluded as such: "based on a review of the compliant, no clinical factors were found that could have contributed to the root cause of the reported failure.Based on the information provided, the surgeon completed the procedure with a non-significant delay, using the same device.According to the report, the only known modification done on the surgical procedure was using a larger polyethene insert than initially planned.Since the patient has been reported as healthy, and no other harm has been alleged to this patient as a result of the 4mm additional bone on the distal cut, no further clinical/medical assessment is warranted at this time.Should any additional relevant medical information be provided, this case would be re-assessed." a review of the manufacturing records did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have caused or contributed to the reported incident.At this time, we do have reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.A review of the risk management file revealed this failure mode was previously identified.The anticipated risk level is still adequate.Assessment of historical escalated cases concluded that there are no prior actions related to this device and failure mode.The root cause of this event was determined to be a segmentation error.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Should additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for this complaint; however, we will continue to monitor future complaints and investigate as necessary.We consider this investigation closed.
