Why these products were recalled

Offset Bushings associated with the lots identified were mismarked: the rotational reference numbers on the Tibial Offset Bushing were marked counterclockwise instead of clockwise; the Femoral Offset Bushing did not include rotational markings.

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.
