Why these products were recalled

Through the investigation of reported complaints Integra verified that there have been instances where the Universal Wire Fixation Bolts the Slotted Post broke during use at the surgical site.

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.
