The manufacturer became aware of a literature from (b)(6), united states. The title of this report is? Intermediate-term experience with the star total ankle in the united states? Which is associated with the stryker? Scandinavian total ankle replacement (star)? System. Within that publication, post-operative complications/ adverse events were reported, which occurred from january 1999 to 2013. It was not possible to ascertain specific device details from the report, a review of the complaint handling database, however, revealed that the events have not been reported by the hospital or by the author of the publication, therefore 76 complaints were initiated retrospectively for adverse events mentioned in the report. This product inquiry addresses coronal plane failure followed by below knee amputation. The report states:? The most common failure mode was progressive coronal plane deformity (n=8, 38%); however, no initial postoperative radiographs demonstrated coronal plan deformity greater than 4 degrees, and no threshold for tolerance of postoperative deformity was able to be determined. [? ] only 1 failure was acutely managed with below-knee amputation (bka); however, this was performed at an outside institution and it is unclear why this procedure was chosen or if it was necessary.?
