It was reported that during implantation of the device ar-1530bc (lot 123197887) the screwdriver attachment from the handled inserter broke off in the screw.The broken off pin remained inside the patient with the screw.According to the surgeon no harm for patient, operator or third party occurred.The surgery was finished successfully with the same device.It was not necessary to switch the surgical technique or do a second surgery.Update on 13-sep-2021: it was confirmed that the ar-8978p-1 device was used first and when it broke, the ar-1530bc device was inserted into the same bone tunnel, which also broke.All fragments of the ar-8978p-1 were retrieved from the patient.
