App-derived interpretation

Unknown reason.no_named_rule · v1.0.0
The femoral impactors have a higher than normal risk of the arm breaking. During impaction the tip of the arm may fracture and separate from the instrument. This may cause a minor delay in surgery. If not retrieved, it may cause an inflammatory response that may require revision surgery.

These labels are deterministic app interpretations, not FDA categories.

Official device-enrichment evidence · Unknown

An exact joined enrichment record exists, but none supplies supported root-cause wording. This is not an FDA finding of an unknown cause.
