    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: D9, G3, H3, H6. ONE UNPACKAGED 8110-026 CORTICAL BONE SCREW, Ø3.5MM X 26MM SERIAL/BATCH NUMBER (B)(6), WAS RECEIVED FOR EVALUATION. VISUAL INSPECTION REVEALED DAMAGE TO THE SCREW THREADS AND THE HEX AT THE HEAD, MOST LIKELY ATTRIBUTED TO THE FACT THAT THEY WERE IMPLANTED AND REMOVED. FUNCTIONAL TESTING WAS CONDUCTED BY SCREWING SOME OF THE RETURNED SCREWS INTO THE RETURNED 3024-011 ALPHA PLATE, LEFT, 11-HOLE, SERIAL/BATCH NUMBER (B)(6). IT WAS NOTED THAT THE GREY SCREWS (NON-LOCKING SCREWS) DID NOT ATTACH TO THE PLATE BY THEMSELVES; HOWEVER, THIS IS EXPECTED AS THESE SCREWS ARE SCREWED DIRECTLY INTO THE BONE TO HOLD THE PLATE IN PLACE. ARTHREX CONCLUDED THAT THERE ARE NO ALLEGATIONS AGAINST THE 8110-026 BATCH 213015. NO RELATED PROBLEM FOUND.
