On (b)(6)2025, a patient reported via phone that an ar-2290 implant system, proximal tenodesis had an issue during an arthroscopic tenodesis procedure with labral repair in the left shoulder on (b)(6)2024 after a shoulder dislocation.When the surgeon tried to put in the suture, the labrum broke even more so that they could not fix it.The biceps tenodesis part of the surgery was completed successfully and the patient was not experiencing any issues.The patient was inquiring about the material composition of the implant system for an upcoming scheduled mri.This occurred during use with no reported patient harm.
