Information was received from multiple sources (manufacturer representative, healthcare provider, clinical study) regarding a patient with clinical id: (b)(6) and clinical study id: (b)(6) having transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (tlif) l3/l5 therapy.It was reported that patient complained of right hamstring and buttock pain, right extensor hallucis longus weakness l4/5.Ct scan on (b)(6) 2022 confirmed a right foraminal stenosis l5/s1 and adjacent level degeneration (b)(6) 2023: tlif l2/l3 and l5/s1 with posterior instrumentation at l2/s1 was performed.Primary diagnosis: stenosis interventions: action subtype: ae result in hospitalization action result: n action subtype: any other action(s) taken action result: y other action taken: mri ordered action subtype: did the ae result in any treatment, action result: y action subtype: drug therapy, action result: yes action subtype: surgical treatment, action result: yes outcome status: recovered/ resolved outcome date: (b)(6) 2024 diagnostics: action type: diagnostic action subtype: ct without contrast1 action result: l5/s1 foraminal stenosis action date: (b)(6) 2022 action type: diagnostic action subtype: were any diagnostic test performed action result: y action type: diagnostic, action subtype: mri without contrast2, action result: severe right and moderately severe left foraminal stenosis l5/s1 action date: (b)(6) 2023.Adverse event info: does the adverse event involve a lumbosacral spinal level: y if yes, levels involved: l5-s1 site seriousness assessment: severity of ae- severe, medical intervention- y.Site-related assessment: possible relationship with l3/l5 tlif procedure.Not related to capstone peek spinal system implant, posterior supplemental fixation system and tlif grafting material.Sponsor assessment (oc muo): possible related to study procedure.Add surgical proc date - 03: (b)(6) 2023 details surg proc - 03: tlif l2/l3 and l5/s1, posterior instrumentation removal at l3/l5 with posterolateral arthrodesis, segmental instrumentation at l2/s1.Is the additional surgical procedure an elective removal - 03: y, adjacent levels tlif and segmental instrumentation if yes, were the index treated level(s) fused prior to the elective removal of the fixation component of the original surgical construct - 03: y does the additional surgical procedure involve a spinal level - 03: y add.Surg: if yes, levels involved - 03: l2-l3, l3-l4, l4-l5, l5-s1 does the additional surgical procedure involve an explant related to the study procedure - 03: y cause of explantation - 03: adjacent level decompression and fusion findings for explantation - 03: severe stenosis at l2/l3 and l5/s1 due to degenerative tilt of l3, l4, l5 into the sacrum on the right findings at add.Surg - 03: solid evidence of fusion at l3/l5 biopsies taken - 03: n site related assessment for additional surgery: probable relationship with l3/l5 tlif procedure.Possible relationship with capstone peek spinal system implant and posterior supplemental fixation system.Not related to tlif grafting material.There were no further complications reported regarding the event.
