Customer reported the following issue regarding a gamma nail ref.3120-1180s, lot k05cc65 and the ancillary material necessary for its installation (nail, target device, bolt): "during an operation on (b)(6) 2021, the material was fitted without any problems until the nail had to be removed from the target device to complete the operation: it was impossible to unscrew.The consequences were a doubling of the operation time due to the need to remove everything to start the whole operation again, and the need to use another ancillary and another nail less adapted to the patient".
