Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Checking the manufacturing charts of the involved lot #1511345, no pre-existing anomaly was found on a total of 61 humeral heads manufactured with the same lot #.Device analysis: devices involved were not returned to limacorporate for further analysis.X-rays analysis: limacorporate received one x-ray referring to pre-operative revision surgery.The x-ray received - exact date unknown - has been evaluated by a medical consultant.Following, the medical consultant comments: "the last revision was necessary for rc failure.This is the most common cause for atsa revision and a natural course of events.The cementing of the liner into the metalback is off-label and may have contributed to the reason for revision, but we don't know that.This is a surgical issue.Radiographs look unremarkable, noted is the high position of the humerus in terms of cor due to the rc failure.There is no sign of implant related failure here".Considering that: · check of manufacturing charts highlighted no anomalies on the components manufactured with lot #1511345.· according to the medical expert "this is the most common cause for atsa revision and a natural course of events" and "there is no sign of implant related failure here".· the primary surgery of the smr total anatomic prosthesis was done in 2013 and it was revised in 2025, therefore the cuff failure occurred 12 years post primary implant.We can state that the event was not product related.Pms data: according to limacorporate pms data, the revision rate of smr anatomic prosthesis (total and hemi) due to cuff failure is (b)(4).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.
