Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a revision surgery was performed to replace a fortify core that collapsed 4 months post operatively.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The device was returned for evaluation.Initial observation shows bio-material and other material of an unknown origin visible against the lock inside the inserter hold of the implant.The implant shows wear as a result of the manner in which it was originally inserted into the patient by using a trial holder and a gear driver.It's possible that excessive force or bio-material was permitted to enter the inserter hold prior to attachment to the instrument may have caused the cage to collapse.However, an exact cause of the reported issue could not be determined.
