Why these products were recalled

Polypropylene Surgical Sutures are recalled because the seals may become open during distribution or subsequent packaging.

Nylon Surgical Sutures are recalled because the seals may become open during distribution or subsequent packaging.

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.
