Certain lots of the Screw Inserter may be etched with incorrect graphics. The orientation of the etched image of the oblique angle on the Screw Inserter may not correspond to the tip of the angle of the instrument.
Overheating and burning of the wire insulation inside the applicator.
In about 5% of tested samples, the outer tray was found to be compromised. Risks: A damaged outer tray detected during surgery may cause a delay in surgery to obtain another implant. If a compromised packaging is not detected prior or during a surgery by the user, it may lead to periprosthetic infection. This may result in revision or multi-stage revision to treat the infection.
