DePuy recalls Global Unite STD Stem SZ 10 parts with undersized spigot bore that may cause surgical delays or bone damage. Affected parts include specific lot numbers and part numbers.
Stems may have an undersized spigot bore diameter therefore separating the proximal body from the stem may not be possible without surgical delay and/or bone damage
DePuy Orthopaedics is recalling Global Unite STD Stem SZ 10 parts that may have an undersized spigot bore. This could lead to surgical delays or bone damage if the stem needs to be separated from the proximal body.
The stems may have an undersized spigot bore diameter, which can make it difficult to separate the stem from the proximal body without causing surgical delays or bone damage. This issue occurs during the removal process of the implant.
Patients using this specific stem part in hip or knee replacements are affected. Those with the recalled lot numbers or part numbers are most at risk.
Check the part number on the stem, which is 110010100. Look for specific lot numbers listed in the recall notice: 9793653 through 9874744. These parts were sold globally.
Identify the part number (110010100) and lot numbers (9793653 to 9874744) to confirm if your stem is affected.
The stems may have an undersized spigot bore diameter, which could cause surgical delays or bone damage when separating the stem from the proximal body.
