Additional Manufacturer Narrative
(b)(4).As the product has not been received, the investigation was limited to the information provided; a review of device history records and complaint history.Two pre-revision radiographs, the same x-rays provided with (b)(4) (taken on an unknown date), were provided for analysis with (b)(4): one anteroposterior (ap) and one mediolateral (ml).One of the bearing¿s ball markers is visible in the ap x-ray, whereas the wire and a ball marker are visible in the ml x-ray, confirming that the bearing has dislocated into the anterior joint space.The femoral and tibial components appear adequately sized and positioned, with the possible exception of the tibial tray being short of the posterior edge of the tibial plateau.The oxford partial knee surgical technique states that the tibial tray should be flush with (or have less than 2 mm overhang from) the posterior edge of the tibial plateau.The patient is male and was (b)(6) at the time of primary surgery.In communications with the complaints team, it is stated that there were no contributing conditions related to the event.The 5 mm bearing was revised with a thicker (6 mm) bearing, which may suggest joint laxity.The cause for revision cannot be determined without further information such as patient height and weight, activity level, dates when the provided radiographs were taken, as well as post-primary x-rays.The manufacturing history records (mhrs) for the femoral component, tibial tray and anatomical bearing have been checked and verify that the components were manufactured and sterilised in accordance with the applicable specifications.In addition, we have not been provided with any supporting documentation which could provide additional information.A review of the complaint database over the last 3 years has found 4 similar complaints found for the item 159549.There were no trends identified from the complaint history review.No same lot numbers, no same hospitals and there are no trends in cause.In most cases of the similar complaints, cause could not be established without the opportunity to examine the complaint product, root cause cannot be determined due to insufficient information.If any additional information becomes available, then the complaint will be reopened and investigated thoroughly.
