Event or Problem Description
It was reported that while inserting modulus implant, the inner threaded piece of the inserter that interacts with the threaded hole in the implant broke off and stayed in implant.They could not get the implant out since it was more than halfway in and so we just tamped implant further into disc space and left the broken piece in the implant.Nothing was put over the tip; it¿s threaded all the way into the implant and broke off.No revision necessary and as of now no reported effects to patient.
