Why it was recalled
May have difficulty attaching the drill sleeve to the plate. If the drill sleeve will not connect to the plate intraoperatively, surgical delay could occur. If the pilot hole is drilled without the drill sleeve, the pilot hole could be off-center which could result in screw and/or plate loosening.
This product could cause temporary or reversible health problems — stop using it.
