Why these products were recalled

Zimmer is recalling various trauma screws that failed a leak test due to damage of the inner cavity only.

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.
