It was reported that the surgery started with the weil¿s osteotomy, then the plantar plate repair.This all went smoothly.Then the surgeon isolated the edb tendon and drilled 2 x 2.5mm holes using the mini biotenodesis disposables set ar-1530ds, he then inserted a 3x8mm biotenodesis screw (ar-1530bc) in the proximal hole which went fine.The surgeon then tried to insert the second screw in using an identical product but the screw would not engage with the tendon and hole.When he had inserted it and tried to disengage the screw driver, the screw came out with the screw driver.He tried this a couple more times until it finally worked.However it was slightly prominent, he went to tighten it and the screw came out again.He had by this point trimmed the tape and suture on the end of the tendon so was unable to tension again to finish that aspect of the procedure.The reported event was a 1st mtp distal phalanx which is a small piece of bone.Then the surgeon tried to insert the quick fix screw from the cpr set.However the quick fix screw did not snap off.After multiple attempts at inserting a twist off screw after a weil¿s osteotomy the bone wasn¿t in good condition anymore.The surgeon reported that the procedure could not be finished as planned and it is unclear if the plantar plate repair is enough to alleviate the patient pain.The following devices were used during the procedure: ar-1530ds-1 lot: 12161979, ar-1530bc lot: 12649748, ar-1530bc lot: 11793696, ar-8930-12s lot: 10574389, ar-8690ds lot: 10300450, ar-8930-11s lot: 10350805, ar-8941ks lot:11790344 x3, ar-7232-03-01 lot: 19272.
