Product complaint #: (b)(4).Investigation summary: the device associated with this report was returned to depuy synthes for evaluation.Visual examination of the returned tibial insert found evidence of deformation/witness marks along one of the posterior grooves that is designed to slide into the locking feature of the mating tibial tray.The observed damage is consistent with unsuccessful insertion attempts during the procedure.The mating tibial tray was not returned, therefore, a functional test was not able to be performed.However, due to the visual damage observed, the difficulty/inability to assemble mating devices can be confirmed.Additional monitoring for any potential safety signals will be conducted through complaint trending and other post-market safety surveillance activities.Device history lot: 1) quantity manufactured: (b)(4) pcs; 2) date of manufacture: 11/19/2021; 3) any anomalies or deviations identified in dhr: none; 4) expiry date: 10/31/2026; 5) ifu reference: (b)(4).Device history review: 1) quantity manufactured: (b)(4) pcs; 2) date of manufacture: 11/19/2021; 3) any anomalies or deviations identified in dhr: none; 4) expiry date: 10/31/2026; 5) ifu reference: (b)(4).
