Stock holding on site of both finished instruments and component parts allows the best possible delivery times. Manufacturing processes undertaken at the Sheffield site include: • machining of forgings and components • fitting and assembly • glazing and polishing • passivation and cleaning • 100% final inspection Full traceability is maintained throughout production, with steel and hardening certificates retained for 10 years and traceability codes applied to each instrument to allow batch identification.

C. APRIL 1971 UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR NATIONAL PARK SERVICE Foreword This report on the medical services at Morristown during the winter encampment of 1779-80 was undertaken to restudy and evaluate the subject in the light of the standard practices of the Continental Army Medical Department. One phase of the evaluation is to determine if the existence and location of the present replica of the so-called Tilton Hospital in the Jockey Hollow area can be justified historically. For interpretive purposes, the report reviews the organic structure of the medical or hospital department, identifies and describes health problems and diseases, and outlines the medical resources of the military surgeons to combat incident diseases and preserve the health of the soldiers. Research on the subject was conducted at the Library of Congress, the National Archives, Pennsylvania Historical Society, American Philosophical Society, the Library Company of Philadelphia and the Morristown NHP library. Several persons contributed to the completion of this study. As usual, Superintendent Stephen H. Lewis and Historians Bruce W. Steward and Diana F. Skiles provided splendid cooperation during my stay in the park; Leah S. Burt, Assistant Park Archivist, located Dr. Cochran's "LetterBook" in the Morristown Public Library. In the National Archives, the diligent efforts of Miss Marie Bouhnight, Office of Old Military Records, resulted in locating much-needed hospital returns of Valley Forge, Middlebrook and Morristown.

Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute, Tampa, USA 5. Anesthesia and Interventional Pain Management, H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute, Ormond Beach, USA Corresponding author: Eric Catlin, [email protected] Abstract To date, no case studies specifically describing a curved kyphoplasty needle becoming lodged in the vertebral body with the inability to be withdrawn have been reported. We describe a case involving a single level balloon kyphoplasty with a curved coaxial needle during which the cement delivery device could not be removed after cavity filling. In this case, a board-certified interventional pain management specialist was performing balloon kyphoplasty for an L2 osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture. The tools utilized in this procedure included flexible curved instruments designed to traverse the vertebral body and achieve uniform cement distribution through a unipedicular approach. Cannulation and cavity formation were completed without issue. Upon conclusion of cement filling, the curved cement delivery device was unable to be removed. After several attempts to remove the needle and consultation with both the device company and local spine surgeons, it was agreed that the device should be cut at the level of entry into the pedicle and left as a retained foreign object.
