DePuy Orthopaedics recalls Global Unite STD Stem SZ 6 with part number 11000610 due to potential separation issues requiring surgical intervention. Affected units may cause delays or bone damage during joint replacement procedures.
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 certain Global Unite STD Stem SZ 6 hip implants because they might not connect properly without causing bone damage or delaying surgery. This could lead to complications during hip replacement procedures.
The stems may have an undersized spigot bore diameter, which can cause the implant to separate from the hip joint. This separation might require additional surgery or bone damage to fix, increasing the risk of complications during hip replacement procedures.
Patients who received the recalled hip implant during surgery between 2019 and 2023 are most at risk. The affected units were sold globally with specific part numbers and lot codes.
Check for the part number 11000610 and lot numbers 9792595, 9793039, 9802121, 9813506, 9818509, 9830922, 9840359, or 9858603 on the implant packaging or documentation.
Review the part number and lot numbers on your implant to confirm if it matches the recalled units.
The stems may have an undersized spigot bore diameter, which can cause the implant to separate from the hip joint without proper surgical repair, potentially requiring additional surgery or bone damage.
Check your implant's part number and lot numbers to see if it matches the recalled units. If it does, contact DePuy Orthopaedics for further instructions.
Yes, the implant may separate without proper surgical repair, which could lead to complications requiring additional surgery or bone damage.
