It was reported that the patient underwent cervical anterior fixation at c6/7 due to cervical spine trauma.Post-op, the screws were integrated with two plates and it seemed that the lower part of the plate has come of rather than the screw came off and has been a little unstable.There was an impression that intra-operative, bone quality was quite bad.Hence on (b)(6) 2019, fixation was performed from the posterior side(vs was used at c4/5/6, t1/2/3) but removal had not been performed.There were no other patient symptoms or complications reported as a result of this event.
