INFORMATION WAS RECEIVED FROM HEALTHCARE PROVIDER (HCP) VIA A MANUFACTURER REPRESENTATIVE REGARDING A PATIENT IMPLANTED WITH ANTERAL IGN CAGE HAVING SPINAL THERAPY FOR LUMBAR SPINAL STENOSIS. IT WAS REPORTED THAT CAGE WAS MISALIGNED, HALF COMING OFF AND SO BONE FUSION COULD NOT BE ACHIEVED. THE INITIAL CASE, WHICH WAS CHANGED FROM DD (CLYDESDALE PTC) TO AG (ANTERALIGN TL), WAS USED IN THE SAME WAY AS WHEN USING DD. THE OPERATION WAS COMPLETED WHEN THE LEFT SIDE WAS SLIGHTLY REMOVED DURING THE INITIAL STAGE USING AG WITH L1-2. AN X-RAY CONFIRMED THAT THE HALF OF THE CAGE WAS REMOVED. DD WAS USED PREVIOUSLY AND IT WAS OVERRUN, SO IT WAS SWITCHED TO AG, BUT THE AG HAS ALSO FALLEN OUT. PATIENT'S SYMPTOMS IMPROVED AND THERE WERE NO PATIENT SYMPTOMS REPORTED. THERE WAS NO PLAN FOR THE REVISION SURGERY AT THIS TIME. THERE WERE NO FURTHER COMPLICATIONS REPORTED REGARDING THE EVENT.
