Neither the device nor any imaging was available for evaluation.It was reported that there was revision surgery to remove a screw that backed out of the c7 level of a 2 level, 20mm resonate plate at c6/7.The original surgery date was (b)(6) 2024.The revision date was (b)(6) 2024.It was reported that the patient had been fused at c3-c5 prior to this c6/7 surgery.The technique used was to drill with a drill guide and use self-drilling screws.It is unclear whether some damage occurred to the plate or sliders inter-operatively or what the cause of the issue could have been.It was also stated that there was a pcf after the screw back out.This evaluation determined that this failure was within expected risk; therefore, no further actions will be taken at this time.No determinations could be made as to the cause of the reported issue.
