Event Description

The patient was implanted on (b)(6) 2022 with no issues post-op or during clinical follow up until the patient started reporting discomfort around (b)(6) 2022 (event date) at which time imaging suggested the screw on the left side plate appeared out of the usual location.Exploratory surgery was performed on (b)(6) 2022 and found loosening of the plate and "slight movement of the distal stump".The patient was then referred to the portuguese hospital for emergency removal and refixation which took place on (b)(6) 2022.The impression was that the mandibullary bone had reabsorbed around the screws and granulation tissue had formed at the site.Bacterial culture of material collected revealed it was negative.It was reported "they will be forwarding the screws removed from the patient's second surgery"- presumably, the devices explanted during the revision on (b)(6) 2022.It was also reported the patient might be diagnosed with metallosis (clinical hypothesis), and it could be related to plates and screws implanted.No further information has been provided.Report 49 of 57 for this event.
