Why these products were recalled

942-01-40G acetabular system package was found to contain 942-01-36H acetabular system; and several other acetabular system and knee insert devices may also have a packaging discrepancy, which may cause surgical delay to exchange devices or revision surgery.

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.
