The description of the event states that haloing was observed around the transition screw.Haloing is an indication of screw movement post-operatively, suggesting that fixation was compromised at this level.It's possible that this could have been caused by excessive stress, improper screw sizing, poor bone purchase, or pseudoarthrosis at that level.The screw was not returned for evaluation and the radiographic images were not available.The exact cause of the reported issue cannot be determined.
