The complaint was reported to renovis after a routine 6-month follow-up examination.And x-ray revealed a dislodged cover plate and two backed-out screws.According to the surgeon, the patient is asymptomatic and the affected level of the 3 level construct have fused.There are no current plans to re-operate as the cover plate appears fully captured in the disc space.This complaint will be re-opened if/when renovis receives information that a revision surgery is planned or has been performed.As no revision surgery has been planned, renovis will not receive the implants back for a full investigation.Based on the initial analysis, the most likely cause for the failure mechanism is one or both of the outboard screws pushing on and dislodging the cover plate due to excessive forces placed on the most inferior cage of a 3 level fusion.Device not explanted.
