Surgeon expressed that the previous medical done on the patients left side on (b)(6) was difficult and there seemed to be something wrong with the registration.After looking into the case which was on the robot still, it was clear that although it was stated to be a left leg on the robot it was actually the right side was segmented and was used for the left leg operation.Therefore actually the right lateral scan was used for the left medial operation.The right lateral segmented bone was used to cut the left medial bone.Therefore cutting and positioning of the implant likely not ideal.
