Event or Problem Description
Updated event description: it was reported that during a total knee arthroplasty (tka) procedure, while using the robotic assisted satellite station device with the robotic assisted base station device, it was observed that the distal femur cut was good, but the anterior cut was visually confirmed to be off, about 7mm more posterior than it should be.It was reported that it was so noticeably off to where the resections were completed manually.The surgeon moved to posterior cut to verify, and the saw blade was not cutting bone when it was supposed to cut 7mm.The surgeon downsized the femur from 5 to 4 with manual cutting blocks using angel wing as reference on anterior cut.Final trial numbers were way off.Cemented implants planned and used.
