Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional information: d9, g3, h3, h6 one unpackaged ar-1934bcf-2-1 suturetak®, batch 15477072, was received for investigation.Visual inspection confirmed that only the anchor and sutures were returned; the driver was not included.The anchor and sutures did not exhibit any visible damage or characteristics consistent with pull-out or mechanical overload.Functional testing could not be performed due to the damage to the device.The most likely cause of the reported failure is off-axis insertion or improper bone preparation, both of which can contribute to inadequate fixation.The complaint allegation is not confirmed, as no intraoperative imaging or photos were provided, and the returned components did not demonstrate evidence consistent with anchor pull-out.Refer to the investigation photos.
