Event Description
|
During the final impaction of the insert, the surgeon was not able to fully seat the actual insert.He had it removed and replaced with a new piece but he had the same outcome as shown on the attached photo "before further impaction" despite clearing away the surrounding tissues.This process repeated thrice and for the final insert he decided to do a further impact from the medial side and thus the final result as shown in attachment "after further impaction".A thin visible gap at the medial side can still be seen after the final further impaction.As we have exhausted all our 3x8mm polys that was prep for this case, the final poly had to be a 9mm instead.(b)(6) 2021 update: the patient was well at the moment and was discharged home.(b)(6) 2021 update: 3 attempts and 2 inserts were wasted.Lot number : 12141118-1, 12101118-1 actual insert used to complete the case, catalog number: 180703-2, lot number : 12551118-1.
