Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The reported event could not be confirmed, as the devices were not returned to freiburg for investigation.And no images were available for review.Review of the available information concluded as follows: as bone healing had already been achieved when the removal surgery was performed, the screws were sufficiently fixated to ensure that stability is achieved until bony healing has occurred.Therefore, the screws worked as intended.
