What happened

Waldemar Link GmbH & Co. KG is recalling 3,785 units of Endo Model Modular Rotational Tibia orthopedic prostheses in small, medium, and large sizes due to a risk that blind screws of the modular tibial component cannot be loosened during surgery. This defect may require surgeons to change their surgical procedure, which could extend the length of the operation. The affected devices were distributed domestically across 15 U.S. states and internationally across numerous countries.

The recall affects specific lot and serial numbers manufactured between April 2021 and November 2021. Consumers can identify affected products using the Universal Device Identifier (UDI) numbers and lot/serial numbers listed in the recall record. The source does not specify a remedy for consumers.
