Complaint allegation is confirmed.One unpackaged, ar-9236-01pp, univers vaultlock¿ glenoid trial, serial/batch number (b)(6), was received for investigation.Visual evaluation found that the device has a broken center peg.Additionally, the device had chips along the edges and a crack down the back of the device.No fragments were returned for evaluation.No functional testing was performed, as part is damaged.The most likely cause for the reported failure can be attributed to use error of the device due to prying/leveraging the device during use.
