What's the hazard
As a result of the investigation into an adverse trend of complaints for reports of misalignment of the calcaneal or tibial screws during use of the Panta Nail Support Device, Integra has decided to issue this voluntary medical device correction. The misalignment can result in the inability to properly insert the screws into the Panta Nail and create the potential need for revision surgery.
