Scorpio knee surgery: insert tibial 7x12mm ps.When trying to place it and hit it; insert not entered to the tibial tray.Wire was outside of its original position, and not allowed to "fall" in the tibial tray so we had to put another insert less thick.Update: opened the implant when trying to place it in the tibial plate did not enter, so check it and note that the wire is slightly out, derived from this open another insert and place it without biggest problem.
