A return material authorization (rma) was issued to evaluate the intuitive surgical, inc.(isi) device.A follow-up mdr will be submitted if the product is returned and evaluated and/or if additional information is received.The provided image was reviewed by an intuitive surgical, inc.(isi) failure analysis engineer (fae) and it was stated that the access port itself does not appear to enter the patient.It appears one of the latching mechanisms of the access port broke and the access port separated from the wound retractor.The provided image was further reviewed by an isi clinical development engineer (cde).The fragment appeared to be from the tab on the access port that would help secure the access port to the wound retractor.This part was external to the patient and from what was gathered from the image, it appears to be mostly intact.
