    AS REPORTED: "DURING SURGERY, THE LOCKING SCREW DID NOT LOCK TO THE PLATE. THE SCREW WAS EXCHANGED TO A NEW ONE, BUT THE SITUATION WAS NOT CHANGED. BECAUSE THE HOLE OF THE PLATE WAS LOOKED CLEARLY BIGGER THAN THE OTHER HOLES AND A DEBRIS WAS FOUND, THE PLATE WAS ALSO EXCHANGED TO A NEW ONE. THE PROCEDURE WAS FINISHED WITHOUT OTHER PROBLEM." NO SURGICAL DELAY OR ADVERSE CONSEQUENCES WERE REPORTED.
