Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that during a procedure, after an attempt to suture and insert the anchor, the device did not recoil and retract the feeder.It was noted that when the surgeon pressed the black button a second time, the device broke and spring jumped out; therefore, the threads couldn't be rolled up.Damage was then found in the handle area.Two anchors remained in the knee and there was a surgical delay of approximately ten (10) minutes.Another device was used to complete the surgery and no other patient consequences were reported as a result of the event.Attempts have been made and no further information has been provided.
