    CHECKING THE MANUFACTURING CHARTS OF THE INVOLVED LOT #2002458, NO PRE-EXISTING ANOMALY WAS FOUND ON THE COMPONENTS MANUFACTURED WITH THE SAME LOT #. ACCORDING TO OUR RECORDS, AT LEAST 55 OUT OF 56 GLENOID BASEPLATES WITH LOT #2002458 - STER. 2000075 HAVE BEEN IMPLANTED AND THIS IS THE ONLY COMPLAINT RECEIVED ON THIS LOT #. CHECKING THE MANUFACTURING CHARTS OF THE INVOLVED LOT #2000243, NO PRE-EXISTING ANOMALY WAS FOUND ON THE COMPONENTS MANUFACTURED WITH THE SAME LOT #. ACCORDING TO OUR RECORDS, AT LEAST 40 OUT OF 64 GLENOID PEGS WITH LOT #2000243 - STER. 2000030 HAVE BEEN IMPLANTED AND THIS IS THE ONLY COMPLAINT RECEIVED ON THIS LOT #. EXPLANTS ANALYSIS THE ITEMS INVOLVED WERE NOT AVAILABLE TO BE RETURNED TO LIMACORPORATE FOR FURTHER ANALYSIS. X-RAYS ANALYSIS LIMACORPORATE RECEIVED ONE X-RAY REFERRING TO PRE-OPERATIVE REVISION SURGERY. THE X-RAY RECEIVED - DATED 10/10/2022 - HAS BEEN EVALUATED BY A MEDICAL CONSULTANT. FOLLOWING, THE MEDICAL CONSULTANT COMMENTS: "FROM THE RADIOGRAPHS ONE CAN ONLY GUESS ABOUT BONE QUALITY, THE GLENOID IMPLANT IS COMPLETELY LOOSE AND DISLOCATED. AGE 82 AND FEMALE SEX ARE A PROBLEM PER SE, SO SOME SORT OF REDUCED BONE QUALITY CAN BE ASSUMED. ANOTHER FACTOR MIGHT COME INTO PLAY: PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY IS A COMMON DISEASE AMONG THE ELDERLY, OFTEN UNDERDIAGNOSED. THE FACT THAT SHE DID NOT COMPLAIN ABOUT PAIN AND MIGHT BE A SUSPICIOUS INDICATOR, BUT THIS IS SPECULATIVE. SURGICAL ERRORS AT THE PRIMARY IMPLANTATION IN TERMS OF UNRELIABLE GLENOID FIXATION IS VERY SPECULATIVE, NO SIGNS PER SE FROM THE INFORMATION WE HAVE. SO OVERALL, NO CLEAR DETERMINATION OF REASONS FOR FAILURE HERE, IMPLANT RELATED ISSUES CAN BE RULED OUT". CONSIDERING THAT: · CHECK OF THE MANUFACTURING CHARTS HIGHLIGHTED NO ANOMALIES ON THE COMPONENTS MANUFACTURED WITH LOT #2002458 AND #2000243; · ACCORDING TO THE RECEIVED INFORMATION, THE POOR BONE QUALITY NEGATIVELY IMPACTED THE INITIAL FIXATION, ULTIMATELY RESULTING IN GLENOID LOOSENING; · ACCORDING TO THE MEDICAL CONSULTANT "AGE 82 AND FEMALE SEX ARE A PROBLEM PER SE, SO SOME SORT OF REDUCED BONE QUALITY CAN BE ASSUMED. ANOTHER FACTOR MIGHT COME INTO PLAY: PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY IS A COMMON DISEASE AMONG THE ELDERLY, OFTEN UNDERDIAGNOSED" AND ALSO "SURGICAL ERRORS AT THE PRIMARY IMPLANTATION IN TERMS OF UNRELIABLE GLENOID FIXATION IS VERY SPECULATIVE, NO SIGNS PER SE FROM THE INFORMATION WE HAVE"; WE CANNOT DETERMINE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE EVENT; STILL WE CAN STATE THAT THE EVENT WAS NOT PRODUCT RELATED. PMS DATA: ACCORDING TO LIMACORPORATE PMS DATA, REVISION RATE OF SMR REVERSE PROSTHESIS DUE TO LOOSENING OF THE GLENOID COMPONENTS IS 0.07%. BASED ON THE ROOT CAUSE ANALYSIS PERFORMED AND ACCORDING TO THE RELEVANT PMS DATA, NO CORRECTIVE ACTIONS REQUIRED FOR THIS SPECIFIC CASE. LIMACORPORATE WILL CONTINUE MONITORING THE MARKET TO PROMPTLY DETECT ANY FURTHER SIMILAR ISSUE. NOTE: THIS IS A FINAL MDR.
