    IT WAS REPORTED THAT THE PATIENT UNDERWENT TRANSFORAMINAL LUMBAR INTERBODY FUSION AT L5-S1 DUE TO LUMBAR CANAL STENOSIS. INTRA-OP, AFTER THE CAGE WAS INSERTED AND ROTATED, THE PHYSICIAN REMOVED THE INSERTER TO CHECK, AND IT WAS FOUND THAT THE CAGE WAS ROTATED TOO MUCH. THEN, WHILE TRYING TO ROTATE THE CAGE BACK, THE CAGE COULD NOT BE GRIPPED WITH THE INSERTER AGAIN. THE CAGE WAS THEN REMOVED WITH A HOSPITAL OWNED INSTRUMENT; AND IT WAS FOUND THAT THE THREADED PART OF THE CAGE WAS STRIPPED. HENCE, A NEW CAGE WAS INSERTED IN ITS PLACE. THERE WAS A DELAY OF LESS THAN 60 MINUTES DUE TO THIS EVENT. NO PATIENT COMPLICATIONS WERE REPORTED.
