Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Product complaint # (b)(4).This report is being submitted pursuant to the provisions of 21 cfr, part 803 (and/or part 4, as applicable).This report may be based on information which has not been investigated or verified prior to the required reporting date.This report does not reflect a conclusion by depuy synthes, or its employees that the report constitutes an admission that the product, depuy synthes, or its employees caused or contributed to the potential event described in this report.If information is obtained that was not available for the initial report, a follow-up report will be filed as appropriate.H11 additional narrative: h3, h6 investigation summary: the product was not returned to j&j medtech orthopaedics, however an x-ray was provided for review.The x-ray investigation revealed that the femoral head appears to be not centrally loaded.With the information provided it is reasonable to conclude that a disassociation event occurred between the liner and the cup.There is no indication that a design or manufacturing issue has caused or contributed to the reported event.Although the liner failure cannot be traced to design or manufacturing, a definite root cause cannot be established due to there being multiple factors that may influence eccentric loading.Consideration must be given to all potential influences such as surgical process, patient variables (e.G.Activity level and use), anatomical considerations and patient changes over time.Any conclusions from the investigational input provided have to be placed into context with all other relevant factors.It is highly recommended to the patient to consult with their healthcare professional for further assessment.As the device was not returned, an as-received condition could not be assessed, and a dimensional inspection and document/specification review were not completed.The overall complaint was confirmed as the observed condition of the pinn mar neut 32idx52od would have contributed to the complained device issue.Based on the investigation findings, 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 j&j medtech orthopaedics 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.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.

Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Product complaint # (b)(4).Investigation summary : pinnacle porocoat was not revised but these two implants were.Marathon neutral liner biolux delta ceramic head x-ray attached.Revision was due to liner having 'flipped' out of the cup.The product was returned to j&j medtech orthopaedics for evaluation.Visual inspection of the returned device found that the pinn mar neut 32idx52od has four out of the six anti-rotation device (ard) tabs of the sheared off.The liner appeared to have been edge loaded causing eccentric deformation in the rim of the device and ultimately contributing to the failure of the anti-rotation devices (ards).There are machining lines from the manufacturing process yet visible within the liner which would not be as obviously present if would be more centrally loaded.Furthermore the rim presents signs of fracture.The fractured fragments were not returned for evaluation.Based on the observed conditions of the liner and the ceramic head in addition with the x-rays is reasonable to conclude that a disassociation event occurred.There is no indication that a design or manufacturing issue has caused or contributed to the reported event.Although the liner failure cannot be traced to design or manufacturing, a definite root cause cannot be established due to there being multiple factors that may influence eccentric loading.Consideration must be given to all potential influences such as surgical process, patient variables (e.G.Activity level and use), anatomical considerations and patient changes over time.Any conclusions from the investigational input provided have to be placed into context with all other relevant factors.It is highly recommended to the patient to consult with their healthcare professional for further assessment.A functional test was not performed since it was not applicable to the complaint condition.A dimensional inspection was not performed since it was not applicable to the complaint condition.The overall complaint was confirmed as the observed condition of the pinn mar neut 32idx52od would have contributed to the complained device issue.Based on the investigation findings, it has been determined that no corrective and/or preventative action is required.There is no indication that a design or manufacturing issue has caused the reported complaint condition.As part of j&j medtech orthopaedics 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.
