Event Description
|
Der states that preparing to implant a stemmed, sleeved mbt revision tray.Used a 10mmx115mm reamer and attempted to place the first conical reamer with the 115x75 stem trial.The proximal end of the stem trial (where the trial locks into the reamer) is so much larger than the reamer it would not allow the physician to fully pass the conical reamer.Forced to use larger reamers in a freehand manner to allow the conical reamers to pass.Added plenty of time and frustration to the case.
