Why these products were recalled

The recall was initiated because ev3 Neurovascular has identified one lot of UltraFlow Flow Directed Micro Catheters and Marathon Flow Directed Micro Catheters may have been mislabeled.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
