Capless Li Pedicle Screw System, Diameters - 4.75mm, 5.5mm, 6.5mm, 7.5mm, 8.25mm, Lengths 30mm-55mm, labeled non-sterile. The Capless LI Pedicle Screw System is indicated for the treatment of sever spondylolisthesis of the L5-S1 vertebra in skeletally mature patients receiving fusion by autogenous bone graft.
Hazard
A defect cause was discovered following a customer complaint pertaining to a post operative dissociation of the Capless Li Screw construct. The screw assembly is made up of three parts; a cup which locks onto a 5.5mm rod, a yoke that cradles the rod during fusion, and a screw that attached to the vertebra. The screw ball on the screw was manufactured out of tolerance (undersized).
