Event or Problem Description
Medtronic received information regarding a navigation device being used during a spinal procedure.It was reported that the needle sheered off at the handle when the surgeon had unlocked the green locking leaver and was twisting to remove.The site had to use cockers around the broken head to clamp onto and rotate out working as a make shift handle.  the blue handle with 4 spheres broke off of the sharp inner shaft.The handle came off  intact, however, the white plastic connected to the sharp inner shaft broke into two (all plastic retrieved) and the broken shaft was sharp.It was immediately emptied into the sharps container.There was no delay in the procedure and no impact on patient outcome.
