    • Terminated Z-1948-2015 FDA Class II initiated 2 Oct 2014

    Failed to meet established requirements for sterile barrier integrity due to a breach of the inner cavity. If the outer tray is compromised in addition to the inner tray a periprosthetic infection may occur. The risk associated with a periprosthetic infection is a revision or potential multi-stage revision to treat the infection.

    • Terminated Z-1256-2014 FDA Class II initiated 25 Feb 2014

    A complaint was received for a discolored All Poly Tibia. Root cause analysis found that the discoloration was the result of free radical oxidation. The oxidation process was advanced prematurely as a result of the machined component being stored in a transparent container exposed to artificial light for six years prior to inert packaging and sterilization of the device.
