It was reported that during procedure the 2mm offset coupler is stuck in the 5l hinge femoral trial.No injuries or delays reported.Back up available.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The associated devices were returned and evaluated.A visual inspection of the returned devices confirmed the stated failure mode.The lock screw was missing from the coupler trial, which would not allow it to be removed from the femoral trial.The devices were manufactured in 2008 and 2012 and exhibit signs of extensive wear/usage.A review of complaint history did not reveal additional complaints for the listed batches for the same failure mode.A review of the manufacturing records did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have contributed to the reported incident.At this time, we have no reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.We recommend that all reusable instruments be routinely inspected for wear and damage and replaced as necessary.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Should additional information be received, the complaints will be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for these complaints; however we will continue to monitor for future complaints and investigate as necessary.
