Why these products were recalled

There are reports of inadequate locking of the extended tab screws. Complaints were reported where the closure top backed out of the screw post-operatively.

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.
