Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The device was retained by the user facility and was not returned to the manufacturer for evaluation.Poor quality photographs of the device were obtained which did not allow an adequate investigation of the device.In discussion with the surgeon performing the procedure, the procedure was completed as intended and the device functioned properly.The surgeon believes the metallic component (spring) was caught on the trocar during removal of the device and does not recommend another procedure to recover the component.The surgeon does not believe this was a device performance issue but rather use error.
