Information was received from healthcare provider (hcp) via a manufacturer representative regarding a patient with clinical id: (b)(6).On (b)(6) 2025, a ct (diagnostic) reported abnormal findings with haloing around the l2 and pelvic screws consistent with screw loosening, with pelvis instrumentation in place and early partial fusion noted.The patient has a history of lumbar surgery (laminectomies in 1999 and 2000 at l4/l5¿l5/s1).The primary diagnostic indication was stenosis with documented pre-operative instability, with four consecutive levels (l2¿s1) treated.Site assessment indicated a causal relationship to the interbody fusion device, posterior fixation device, plf grafting material, and the surgical construct/procedure.Sponsor assessment concluded the event is causally related to the posterior fixation device and not related to the procedure, plf grafting material, or the interbody device.No additional clinical symptoms or complications were provided in the report.
