Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Additional info: product analysis: a visual review of the implant confirmed the ¿ears¿ of the -03-top component are broken off and not returned for analysis.Microscopic review of the returned item indicates that are witness marks on the back side of the implant where it connects to the inserter, indicating force was used in implantation.There do not appear to be any significant witness marks on the nose of the peek portion, this indicates that it would appear the spacer was fully closed.The fracture surface at the ears indicates material overload.If information is provided in the future, a supplemental report will be issued.
