Batch review performed on 14 october 2024: lot 2162301: (b)(4) items manufactured and released on 20-may-2022.No anomalies found related to the problem.To date, no similar events have been reported on the same lot during the period of review.Preliminary investigation performed by r&d project manager (picture of the incident received and analyzed): from the event description and pictures, it is clear that the anti-rotational insert of the trial offset has been disassembled from the main body during trial removal from the bone.During extraction of the system consisting of extension stem, trial offset, and trial keel assembly from the bone, the elastic clipping of the threaded insert of the trial offset is unable to withstand the blows and disengages from the offset body itself.Root cause: the issue was likely influenced by a combination of the inherent mechanical limitations of the design version involved and the forces applied under the specific conditions of use.
