The incorrect disposable drill kit and disposable pin kit were provided within the implant kit.The surgeon proceeded using a smaller tibial drill to drill the femoral peg holes.The disposable femoral trial broke during trialing.This reportedly occurred because the femoral holes drilled using the smaller drill were not deep enough for the femoral trial pegs.The surgeon re-drilled the holes and trialed using the femoral implant.The procedure was extended by approx 10 minutes.A good outcome was achieved.
