Event or Problem Description
As reported, the surgeon was preparing the patient's glenoid to receive a glenoid base plate during a reverse total shoulder procedure.A 42mm pilot tip reamer was being used when the pilot tip fractured at its base and separated from the reamer.The fractured tip was retrieved from the surgical site without incident.There was no reported surgical delay/prolongation.The patient was last known to be in stable condition following the event.No other patient information/medical history reported.
