Manufacturer Narrative
|
Imaging provided shows the inferior screw has backed out anteriorly past the screw blocking mechanism.During implantation, it was noticed that both of the blocking mechanisms were broken off at the inferior level.Evaluation of the suspect device shows that it does not appear the "ceiling" above the blocking mechanism was damaged.It is possible that the blocking mechanism broke prior to the screw loosening and backing out of the plate, not able to provide any resistance for a loosening screw; however, the exact cause of the reported issue could not be determined.
