It was reported that, during a thr surgery, surgeon was attempting to remove the size 22 redapt distal reamer but it became stuck in the patient's canal.In an attempt to extract the distal reamer, the surgeon attached the redapt trial body size 16 + to the distal reamer and began the extraction attempt.During the process, redapt trial body size 16 + broke off of the distal reamer and was no longer usable.As the trial broke out of the patient, no broken pieces from the instrument fell in to the patient's wound.Surgery was resumed, after a non-significant delay, with the same device.Patient was not harmed as consequence of this problem.
