Event or Problem Description
On 2nd july 2025, it was reported by an arthrex's employee via email that for 2 units of ar-2325pslc, suture anchor, peek swivelock®, 3.5 mm x 15.8 mm, vented, 1 unit of ar-2325pslc's anchor broke during insertion.Hence, the surgeon changed to another new ar-2325pslc.But the 2nd ar-2325pslc's anchor dropped out too.This was detected during an ankle ligament injury repair surgery on (b)(6) 2025.The case was completed successfully by using ar-2324bcc.There was no patient harm, and no secondary procedure needed.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional information: g3, h3, h6.The complaint allegation is confirmed.Photographic evidence provided from the field of two ar-2325pslc's, with batch number 15122594, revealed that the anchors were missing.Therefore, arthrex was able to conclude a most likely cause.The most likely cause can be attributed to misaligned insertion; or prying/leveraging the devices during use.
