THIS IS NOT ON THE TRIMED SURGICAL TECHNIQUE MANUAL, THEREFORE THIS WAS OFF LABEL USE. WHEN THE SURGEON WENT TO PUT THE PEG IN, HE THINKS THAT THE BEARING MAY HAVE COME OUT OF THE BOTTOM OF THE PLATE, BUT FELT THAT FIXATION WAS EXCELLENT, WAS PLEASED WITH THE RESULT, AND DIDN'T FEEL REMOVAL WAS NEEDED OR NECESSARY. IT HAS BEEN REPORTED THAT THE PATIENT HAS DONE GREAT AND THIS DID NOT CAUSE ADDITIONAL HARM.
