    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    THE DEVICE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS REPORT WAS NOT RETURNED. REVIEW OF THE DEVICE HISTORY RECORDS AND/OR A LOT SPECIFIC COMPLAINT DATABASE SEARCH WAS NOT POSSIBLE AS THE LOT CODE REQUIRED WAS NOT PROVIDED. THE INVESTIGATION COULD NOT DRAW ANY CONCLUSIONS REGARDING THE REPORTED EVENT WITHOUT DEVICE EXAMINATION. HOWEVER ALTHOUGH NOT RETURNED, IT WOULD NOT BE UNREASONABLE TO FIND POLY MATERIAL WEAR AFTER THE LENGTH OF TIME REPORTED AS IMPLANTED. THE INVESTIGATION HAS ALSO DETERMINED THAT THIS PRODUCT CODE IS NOW OBSOLETE. BASED ON THE INVESTIGATION THE NEED FOR CORRECTIVE ACTION IS NOT INDICATED. DEPUY CONSIDERS THE INVESTIGATION CLOSED AT THIS TIME. SHOULD THE PRODUCT OR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION BE RECEIVED TO CHANGE THE OUTCOME OF THE PERFORMED INVESTIGATION, THE COMPLAINT WILL BE RE-OPENED.
