A doctor was forced to implant a screwdriver shaft during an orthopedic surgery:
“There on the back table was a sterile stainless steel metal shaft of a screwdriver that measured the same diameter as the rods that I intended to use. I then used a bolt cutter and measured the rod just to be sure. I then put bone graft on both side in order to fuse his spine. The rest of the surgery proceeded without any incident,” says Dr. Robert Ricketson.
