Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Batch review performed on 30 november 2022.Lot 174382: (b)(4) items manufactured and released on (b)(6) 2017.Expiration date: 2022-10-09.No anomalies found related to the problem.To date, all items of the same lot have been sold without any similar reported event during the period of review.Preliminary investigation performed by r&d project manager: looking at the images and videos attached to the complaint it is cleraly visible that all the ha coating on the stem body has been completely absorbed by patient bone as expected.Some signs and scratches are present on the stem neck surface probably due to revision surgery.Looking at the video it is visible that the stem was mobilized inside the patient bone, meaning not correct osseointegration.It is not possible to determine the root cause of stem mobilization.Clinical evaluation performed by medical affairs manager: at about 2 years after the primary surgery, stem loosening was detected.From the images, signs of stress shielding and radiographic loosening are visible. according to report, there was no problem at the time of 1 year after the primary surgery, however radiolucent lines were already visible.It was reported that there is no infection. osseous formation around the cup and the trochanteric shoulder of the stem, as well as just below the collar may represent a reaction to external stimuli that we cannot find in the report.At the beginning a revision was not planned but since it was inevitable, the stem and head were replaced. aseptic loosening is a possible literature described adverse event after primary cementless hip arthroplasties and causes are often unknown.The reason of this failure cannot be determined.The complaint was notified with the awareness date (b)(6) 2022.The reivision was performed on (b)(6) 2022 when the complaint became a reportable event.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
