Information was received from a healthcare professional (hcp) via a manufacturer representative regarding a patient with an implantable neurostimulator (ins).It was reported that during surgery the stimloc's profile was found to be raised above the patient's skull and created horns which were aesthetically not please to the patient because they were bald.The hcp used a small drill to recess the stimloc by grinding the bone around the burr so that the stimloc sat down a little and was level with the skull, this took an extra 20 minutes of procedure time for the patient.There were no further complications reported as a result of the event.
