Event Description
|
Corail reamer handle wouldn't connect to the pinnacle acetabular graters.Reamer handle was unable to be used during surgery, however the 2nd reamer handle worked.Upon inspection of the handle after the surgery, the white outer sleeve was 2 mm noticed to be too long and covered half of the connection nodules, hence why the graters couldn't connect.Surgeon's guess is that the white outer sleeve belongs to the new reamer handles, but was put on an old one.
