Product complaint # (b)(4).Investigation summary : the device associated with this report was not returned for analysis.Review of the photographic evidence revealed that, due to the poor quality of the photo there is not enough evidence to confirm the disassociation between the insert and the tibial tray.Additionally, disassociation cannot be confirmed without a x-ray evidence.Additional monitoring for any potential safety signals will be conducted through complaint trending and other post-market safety surveillance activities.Device history lot : a search of the depuy nonconformance (nc) quality system found no nc¿s associated with this product/lot combination.Based on the inability to find any nc¿s against the provided product code/lot code combination, it is reasonable to conclude that there are no anomalies with regard to manufacturing or inspection contained in the device history records that would contribute to the reported event.
