    Narratives

    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    PRIMARY REPORTED AS 19 YEARS AGO. EXAMINATION WAS NOT POSSIBLE, AS THE DEVICE WAS NOT RETURNED. REVIEW OF THE DEVICE HISTORY RECORDS WAS ALSO NOT POSSIBLE AS THE PRODUCT AND LOT CODE WAS UNAVAILABLE. ALTHOUGH UNAVAILABLE FOR EVALUATION, IT WOULD NOT BE UNREASONABLE TO EXPECT POLY MATERIAL WEAR AFTER APPROXIMATELY 19 YEARS OF IMPLANTATION. THE INVESTIGATION COULD NOT VERIFY OR IDENTIFY ANY EVIDENCE OF PRODUCT CONTRIBUTION/ERROR REGARDING THE REPORTED EVENT WITH THE INFORMATION AVAILABLE. BASED ON THE INVESTIGATION, THE NEED FOR CORRECTIVE ACTION IS NOT INDICATED. DEPUY CONSIDERS THIS INVESTIGATION CLOSED. SHOULD THE PRODUCT OR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION THAT CHANGES THIS CONCLUSION BE RECEIVED, THE INVESTIGATION WILL BE REOPENED.
