[133760657] This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional information. Complaint sample was evaluated and the reported event was confirmed. Visual inspection shows scratches and dings along the surface likely from prior use. This item has a piece of an unknown pin seized inside of the hole. The returned items do not contain an etch so identification cannot be determined. Device history record (dhr) review was unable to be performed as the lot number of the device involved in the event is unknown. Root cause was unable to be determined as the necessary information to adequately investigate the reported event was not provided. A summary of the investigation has been sent to the complainant. If any further information is found which would change or alter any conclusions or information, a supplemental will be filed accordingly. Zimmer biomet will continue to monitor for trends.
