The lot number was corrected to aaa4.Visual, dimensional, functional, and materials analyses could not be performed because the device remains implanted.Device history records were reviewed and all units met specification.The reported event of cage fracture was confirmed via x-ray images.The supplemental fixation system shows no sign of damage; therefore, it is possible the fracture was initiated during implantation.Because the device remains implanted and is not available for analysis the root cause cannot be determined conclusively.
