Product Description

Cortera Spinal Fixation System, REF: 150100-85050. Spinal fixation screws labeled as 8.5 mm diameter, 50 mm length.

Reason for Recall

Spinal fixation screws labeled as 8.5 mm diameter, 50 mm length were manufactured using an incorrect screw shank component, and so the labeling is incorrect because the affected screws are in fact 5.5 diameter, 45 mm length screws, which if used may lead to the screw not engaging.
