It was reported that the liner cannot match with the acetabular cup.The associated reflection 3 hole shell was returned and evaluated.A dimensional evaluation was completed on the returned device for all critical-to-quality features, and the failure mode could not be confirmed through this evaluation.No obvious signs of damage was visually observed.Our investigation including a review of the manufacturing records for the listed batch did not reveal any deviation from the standard manufacturing processes.A review of the complaint history for the listed part revealed no prior complaints for the listed failure mode with the same batch number.At this time, we have no reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.A relationship, if any, between the device and the reported incident could not be corroborated.No further investigation warranted for this complaint; however smith and nephew will continue to monitor for future complaints and investigate as necessary.Should additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.
