Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Checking the manufacturing charts of the involved lot #19at31l, no pre-existing anomaly was found on the (b)(4) devices manufactured with the same lot #.According to our records, at least 94 out of 104 reverse liners with lot #19at31l and ster.2000052 have been implanted and this is the only complaint received on this lot #.Checking the manufacturing charts of the involved lot #2125951, no pre-existing anomaly was found on the (b)(4) devices manufactured with the same lot #.According to our records, all glenospheres with lot #2125951 and ster.2200013 have been implanted and this is the only complaint received on this lot #.Further checking the sterilization charts of the involved lot #s, no pre-existing anomaly was found.Device analysis: devices were not available to be returned to limacorporate for further analysis.X-rays analysis: limacorporate received one ct scan referring to pre-operative of the revision surgery.The x-rays received - dated (b)(6) 2023 - has been evaluated by a medical consultant.Following, the medical consultant comments: "on the ct scout scan a malpositioned, potentially loose glenoid component is visible.Whether it is due to infection or aseptic loosening i cannot tell.It sounds odd, that the surgeon identified loosening on ct scans and asked for custom made and intraoperatively found the implant to be stable.But anyway, its either surgical error or loosening which would be fateful course of events.No signs for implant related failure".Considering that: · check of manufacturing and sterilization charts highlighted no anomalies on components with lot #19at31l and #2125951.· according to the received information, it was thought that the glenoid component was loose on the ct scan, but during the surgery it was actually found to be well fixed.A possible low-grade infection was hypothesized, but not confirmed.· according to the medical consultant "on the ct scout scan a malpositioned, potentially loose glenoid component is visible.Whether it is due to infection or aseptic loosening i cannot tell" and "its either surgical error or loosening which would be fateful course of events.No signs for implant related failure".We cannot determine with certainty the root cause of the event, still we can state that it was not product related.Pms data according to limacorporate pms data, the revision rate of smr reverse prostheses due to pain is 0.02%.Based on the root cause analysis performed and according to the relevant pms data, no corrective actions are required for this specific case.Limacorporate continues monitoring the market to promptly detect any further similar issue.Note: this is a final mdr.
