Product complaint # (b)(4).Investigation summary: it was reported that while putting the trays together the metal part of the trial liner was broken apart from the plastic liner.All pieces are accounted for.Unknown surgical delay.No further information is available.The device associated with this report was returned to depuy synthes for evaluation.Visual analysis found the screw disassembled from the trial and the snap ring is missing, for consequence of the missing snap ring the screw fell apart.This failure is consistent with overtightening the screw, causing the component to separate from the rest of the device.No broken fragments were observed a functional test was unable to be performed since it was not applicable to the complaint condition.A dimensional inspection was not performed as it is not applicable to the complaint condition.The overall complaint was unconfirmed as the observed condition of the pin trl +4 neut 520dx36id would not contribute to the complained device issue.Based on the investigation findings, the potential cause is traced to unintended use error, and it has been determined that no corrective and/or preventative action is proposed.There is no indication that a design or manufacturing issue has caused the reported complaint condition.As part of depuy synthes quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.Additional monitoring for any potential safety signals will be conducted through complaint trending and other post-market safety surveillance activities.Device history lot: the product investigation found no evidence suspecting an error in the manufacturing or material that would be a contributing factor in the reported allegation(s).A manufacturing records evaluation (mre) was not performed.
