Event Description
|
It was reported that this was an rsa performed on (b)(6) 2023.When the surgeon was inserting the 4.5mm×30 locking screw into the anterior of a metaglene, the head of it broke.Therefore, the surgeon tried to use the 4.5mm×24mm locking screw, but it also broke like the first one.The surgeon judged that the fixation was adequate because superior, inferior, and posterior screws were inserted firmly.The surgeon decided not to insert a locking screw into the anterior.The surgeon assumes that the locking screws got broken because the patient¿s bone quality was good/hard.There was no surgical delay and no harm to the patient.No further information is available.
