Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the patient underwent a spinal surgery during which the screw was mal-positioned upon insertion.This was observed through c-arm image, and subsequently an o-arm image spin.From another c-arm image taken post operatively, inference was that the screw was loose in the driver to the point that it was unable to be controlled.
