Stryker Restoration Anatomic Shell Recall Due to Packaging Defect

Howmedica Osteonics Corp. is recalling Stryker Restoration Anatomic Hemispherical Shells because the device may fall off its post within the inner packaging, resulting in coating debris.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text explicitly states no illnesses or injuries have been reported, and the hazard is a packaging defect rather than a direct biological or structural failure causing harm.
