Product complaint # (b)(4).Investigation summary: it was reported that the trial liner 56 +4 10°x40id broke at apex ,metal screw piece fell out, all pieces retrieved.The product was returned to depuy synthes for evaluation.The depuy synthes team conducted a visual inspection of the returned device.Visual inspection of the returned sample revealed that the pin trl lnr 10deg +4 40id 56od was found scratched on the outer perimeter of trial where the screw component sits.This condition caused the screw fell apart and the snap ring is missing.It's reasonable to conclude that the damage was caused by over-tightening the threaded insert during used and intentionally disassembling the snap ring from the screw for surgical preference or cleaning.Potential cause can be attributed to heavy use.A dimensional inspection was unable to be performed due to post manufacturing damage.A functional test was not performed as it is not applicable to the complaint condition.The overall complaint was confirmed as the observed condition of the pin trl lnr 10deg +4 40id 56od would 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: a date code was provided, which indicates that the device was manufactured on (mfg date 9/15/2009).A manufacturing records evaluation (mre) was not performed since a valid finished good lot number was not provided for this device.
