MAUDE report 20566205 ↗InjuryOct 2, 2023Break; Fracture; Break; Fracture
THE REAMER WAS BROKEN DURING RE-REVISION OF THA AND TIP PART OF THE REAMER WAS LEFT IN THE PATIENT'S FEMUR ON (B)(6) 2023 (NOTE: THIS RECORD WAS OPENED FOR BROKEN REAMER AND ANOTHER PI WAS OPENED FOR RE-REVISION). AFTER REMOVING CEMENT TO SOME EXTENT, REAMING WAS PERFORMED USING 6MM FLEXIBLE REAMER. HOWEVER, TIP OF THE REAMER GOT STUCK WITH CEMENT IN THE MEDULLARY CAVITY OF A BONE. THE SURGEON TRIED TO REMOVE THE REAMER BY REAMING AGAIN AND AGAIN, BUT THE SHAFT OF THE REAMER WAS BROKEN AND TIP PART OF THE REAMER WAS LEFT IN THE CEMENT. BECAUSE THE SURGERY TOOK A VERY LONG TIME, THE SURGEON DECIDED THAT THE FEMORAL IMPLANT WOULD BE REMOVED AT A LATER DATE, AND THE SURGERY WAS FINISHED WHILE THE TIP PART OF THE BROKEN REAMER STILL IN THE PATIENT'S BODY. THE SURGEON TOLD THAT ABOUT A MONTH LATER, WHEN THE PATIENT IS READY FOR SURGERY, HE WILL PERFORM THE SURGERY AGAIN AND TREAT THE FEMORAL SIDE.
