Event or Problem Description
Information was received from a healthcare professional (hcp) via a medtronic representative regarding a funnel used in an l4/5 cage replacement reoperation (l4-s pps, l4/5 tlif, 5/s tlif) for lcs, leg paralysis, and numbness.It was reported that the bone graft funnel was filled with bone in an attempt to fill the intervertebral disc with bone graft, but got stuck and would not come out.After attempts to remove the blockage with steel objects from the hospital, the problem persisted and therefore was identified as a failure event.The funnel was not used on the patient, even though the patient was on the operating table when the malfunction occurred.There was no patient impact.The l4/5 cage backed out due to a screw loosening on the right side of l4.This was a repeat surgery due to screw loosening and cage back out.The date of initial surgery was on (b)(6) 2023.On (b)(6) 2023, repeat surgery was performed.The right l4 screw and the l4/5 cage were removed and replaced with a new one.The cause of screw loosening was that the l4 right screw was placed outward from the pedicle and deviated.No further complications were reported/ anticipated.
