Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Dr states that when drilling the 3.2 bone pin into the tibia there was an odd sound.Intra-incisional tibia pins were determined to be low enough to not interfere with press fit punch or implant.Upon removing the pin it was discovered that an about a cm of the threads had sheared off and was left in patient bone.A post op x-ray is scheduled to determine if pin caused a crack in bone.Update 18 nov 2019 information received from mps: post op x-ray showed that 1cm of the 3.2x110 was left in the patients bone.The keel punch was what caused the pin to break.No fracture was caused to bone.Dr.Is aware that intra-incisional tibia pin placement is off-label and now measures the keel before placing pins to prevent this from happening again.Product evaluation and results: the product was unavailable for inspection as the product was not returned.Product history review: review of the device history records indicate 513 devices were manufactured and accepted into final stock on 10/29/2018.No non-conformances were identified during inspection.Complaint history review: a review of complaints in catsweb and trackwise related to p/n 213524, l/n 48840618 shows 1 additional complaints related to the failure in this investigation.Conclusions: the failure mode could not be confirmed because the part was not available for evaluation.If device and/or additional information become available, this investigation will be reopened.
