H3, h6: the devices were not returned for evaluation; therefore, a device analysis could not be performed.The clinical/medical investigation concluded that, per case details, after a tka revision surgery was performed, the patient reportedly ¿experienced range of motion issues, presenting loose extension and tight in flexion.¿ additionally, a subsequent revision and explantation of components (the tibial base plate, stem and the tibial insert were explanted/replaced with a legion revision.As of the date of this medical investigation, the requested clinical documentation including surgical/operative report has not been provided; therefore, there were no clinical factors found which would have contributed to the event.The patient impact beyond the reported symptoms and revision cannot be determined and the patient¿s current health status is unknown.Therefore, no further clinical/medical assessment can be rendered.Should additional clinically relevant information/documentation become available, the clinical/medical task may be re-opened for further evaluation.For lgn pressfit stem 13mm x 160mm, a review of the production order did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have caused or contributed to the reported incident.A review of complaint history for the part number over the past 12 months and for the batch number based on historical data of the device did not reveal similar events for the listed device.A review of the instructions for use documents for knee systems revealed in possible adverse effects that decreased range of motion and unusual stress concentrations can result from trauma, improper implant selection, improper implant positioning, improper fixation, and/or migration of the components.Muscle and fibrous tissue laxity can also contribute to these conditions.A review of the risk management file revealed this failure mode was previously identified.The anticipated risk level is still adequate.A historical review concluded that there are no prior actions related to this product and event.For legion total knee rev fem comp, genesis ii total knee tib baseplate and genesis ii total knee tib insert, device specific identifiers were not provided.Therefore, an evaluation of the manufacturing records, complaint history review, instructions for use, risk management file and prior actions review could not be performed.At this time, we have no reason to suspect that the products failed to meet any specifications at the time of manufacture.Factors that could contribute to the reported event include alignment, size selected or wear.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Should the devices or additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for this complaint; however, we will continue to monitor for future complaints and investigate as necessary.We consider this investigation closed.
