Reason for Recall

Surgical technique instructions for the Versys and Slotted Provisional Femoral Heads have been enhanced to inform users that the head may become difficult to visually locate if it becomes displaced deep or medial to the iliopsoas tendon and provide non-invasive imaging methods that can be used to locate the head. To reduce incidence of sub-optimal fit between provisional femoral heads and the mat
