As a result of this malfunction, the potential for surgical intervention exists to preclude permanent damage to a body structure or permanent impairment of a body function as evidenced by previous reported events with similar files.This event, therefore, is reportable per 21cfr part 803.The two involved reciproc blue files are actually broken at the tip of the active part (fatigue).No material defect was found during analysis of the rupture patterns.Nothing unusual to report was found during dhrs review.Unused files have been evaluated and were found in compliance with specifications.Root causes are not identified.We will track this kind of event and monitor the trend.For information, we remind the practitioner has to make sure that a straight-line access is created prior using the reciproc blue files (as mentioned in the dfu).
