On 2nd july 2025, it was reported by an arthrex employee via email that an ar-3652sp-1, fibertak® rc suture anchor, (white/black), was bent and therefore did not deploy into the bone.This was detected during use in a rotator cuff repair procedure on (b)(6) 2025.The procedure was completed successfully as they opted to use an ar-2324bcct-1 swivelock anchor instead.
