Event or Problem Description
On 10/24/2025, an arthrex subsidiary employee reported via email that an ar-3633sp self-punching triple-loaded fibertak anchor became unusable.After the anchor was inserted into the bone hole, the suture came out without any resistance when pulled.The anchor was subsequently removed, and the surgery was completed using a product from another manufacturer.This was discovered during a procedure on (b)(6) 2025.There was no significant delay reported, no additional anesthesia was administered, and no adverse effects were reported during or following the procedure due to this issue.
