Production records from the involved lots have been checked and found no issues.Investigation is still ongoing, no unique root cause was identified.We believe the issue is a due to surgeon not following the surgical technique resulting lack of fixation of the set-screws in the initial implantation followed by loosening of the construct.The wrong handling might also be the cause of the breakage of the set-screwdriver tip.
