Event or Problem Description
It was reported that on (b)(6) 2023, the surgeon was performing an antegrade ria2 bone-harvesting procedure.When removing the ria2 assembly from the proximal femur, the ria2 head broke at the junction of the 4 flanges and the cutting reamer head.As the reaming rod was removed with the cutting end of the ria2 head attached, the detached flanges became impaled in the surrounding soft tissues.The surgeon made several attempts to retrieve the fragments, however after 30+ minutes of consistent effort, decided that more harm was being done to the soft tissues and had to abandon the retrieval efforts.The product failure resulted in 4 fragments, roughly 5mm x 2mm x 1mm left within the soft tissues of the patient's hip abductors.The graft harvesting procedure was completed.No further information is available.This report is for a 12.0mm reamer head for ria 2 sterile.This is report 1 of 1 for (b)(4).
