It was reported that the patient received a corail/pinnal hip at hospital on (b)(6) 2020.Implanted: cup pinnacle: 62, insert: 62/36 poly, stem: corail kho 14, head: 36 ceramic +8.5mm.Patient got up on (b)(6) 2025 and heard a squeaking sound from his hip.The patient then went to the hospital, where it turned out that the liner was dislocated, completely tilted 90 degrees and the ard tags were completely deformed.Revision was performed.Hospital states that it had previously seen this problem in a patient with the same size liner/cup.

Product complaint #: (b)(4).Investigation summary: patient got up on (b)(6) 2025 and heard a squeaking sound from his hip.He then went to the hospital, where it turned out that the liner was dislocated, completely tilted 90 degrees and the ard tags were completely deformed.Revision was performed.Hospital states that it had previously seen this problem in a patient with the same size liner/cup.The product was not returned to j&j medtech orthopaedics; however, photos were provided for review.The photo investigation revealed that the pinn mar neut 36idx62od shows signs of fracture, multiple rotation device (ard) tabs sheared off.Based on the observed conditions of the pinn mar neut 36idx62od and the metal transfer on the ceramic head it 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.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 36idx62od 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.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.
