Zimmer Biomet recalls Dual Mobility Vivacit-E Bearing model 110031009 due to size mismatch between package label and actual implant. This mismatch risks improper surgical fit.
The outer package is labeled as a Size C 38 mm, however, the implant inside the package is a Size E 42 mm.
Zimmer Biomet is recalling a specific hip implant model because the size labeled on the package does not match the actual implant inside. This mismatch could lead to improper surgical fitting and potential complications.
The package labels the implant as Size C (38 mm), but the actual implant is Size E (42 mm). This size difference could cause improper surgical fitting during hip replacement procedures.
Patients who received the recalled model 110031009 implant during surgery are affected. Surgeons and medical facilities that used this model are at higher risk.
Check the package label for a Size C 38 mm marking and the implant itself for a Size E 42 mm marking. The model number is 110031009 and lot number 64755636.
Check the package label for Size C 38 mm and the implant for Size E 42 mm to confirm the recalled model.
The package labels the implant as Size C 38 mm, but the actual implant is Size E 42 mm, which could cause improper surgical fitting.
Check the package label and implant size; if it matches the recalled model (Size C 38 mm label but Size E 42 mm implant), contact Zimmer Biomet for guidance.
