Additional Manufacturer Narrative
An event regarding wear and disassociation involving a lfit v40 cocr head that was mated with an accolade stem was reported.The event was confirmed.Method & results: -product evaluation and results: visual inspection: the reported device was not returned however photographs were provided for review.The photographs show a recently explanted head with body fluids on it.It seemed to be removed still seated onto the trunnion of the stem.However, once removed from the stem in a second photo, there is evidence of wear of the trunnion, black tissue and the taper of the head appears dark in colour.Material analysis, functional, and dimensional inspections could not be performed as the device was not returned.-clinician review: a review of the provided medical records by a clinical consultant indicated: 'this case concerns a patient who underwent a primary cementless total hip arthroplasty in 2008 and then approximately 18 years later developed head neck disassociation with metallosis requiring revision surgery.I can confirm that the patient underwent a primary total hip replacement and sustained a head neck disassociation since i was able to review x-rays showing the implants.I cannot confirm the revision surgery since i have no documentation such as office notes, operation note or post revision x-rays.The root causes of had neck disassociation with metallosis are multifactorial including surgical technique factors, trunnion and head preparation prior to implantation, patient factors such as activity level and bmi, and implant factors.The explanted femoral prosthesis and femoral head should be submitted to stryker engineers for examination and evaluation.' -product history review: review of the device history records indicate devices were manufactured and accepted into final stock with no relevant reported discrepancies.-complaint history review: there has been one other similar event for the lot referenced for wear.Conclusions: the reported device was not returned however photographs were provided for review.The photographs show a recently explanted head with body fluids on it.It seemed to be removed still seated onto the trunnion of the stem.However, once removed from the stem in a second photo, there is evidence of wear of the trunnion, black tissue and the taper of the head appears dark in colour.The subject device has been identified to be within scope of nc and capa.Lot specific voluntary recall was initiated for the lfit v40 cocr heads within scope of a capa.The investigation revealed that only specific catalog numbers and specific lots are impacted by the regulatory action and that the affected lots were manufactured on or before march 4, 2011.The root cause analysis identified a process related anomaly as to the affected sizes and lots.The affected product has all been implanted and/or expired.
