The returned part was examined.No x-rays were provided.There was a significant amount of bony tissue adhered to the porous coating of the stem.There were significant score marks on the proximal portion of the stem consistent with osteotome utilization for stem removal.The bony tissue and score marks are suggestive of bony fixation.There were no other indicators or observations that would explain how this device contributed to the reported incident.
