Batch review performed on 6 october 2022: lot 2111450: (b)(4) items manufactured and released on 24-jan-2022.Expiration date: 2027-jan-10.No anomalies found related to the problem.To date, (b)(4) items of the same lot have been sold with no similar reported event during the period of review.Visual inspection performed by r&d manager: during the analysis it is evaluated that all the ha coating is present on the stem body.Only one small part on the lateral stem is little bit scratched.This is expectable due the fact that the stem has been explanted after 2 days.Some signs and scratches are present on the neck surface probably due to revision surgery.We evaluated the shape and dimension of the stem comparing it with dedicated x-ray templates 100% scale and all parameters are in compliance to the specifications.It is not possible to determine the root cause of reported complaint.
