    The firm has determined that two lots of this instrument were inappropriately manufactured by the supplier. the manufacturing process created a step in the lumen which impedes the lag screw retaining shaft from passing through the lumen without the use of excessive force.
  • Action
    The firm sent Correction and Removal Notification Immediate Response Required letters via email to consignees. The letter identified the affected product and the reason for the recall. The letters also discussed the clinical implications and required actions. Customers are to complete the inventory certification form and user facility documentation form.
