Description
10 mm/135 degree Titanium Cannulated Trochanteric Fixation Nail 170 MM - Sterile: intended to treat stable and unstable fractures of the proximal femur
Reason
The 10 mm/135 degree Titanium Cannulated Trochanteric Fixation Nail 170 MM (Sterile) was assembled incorrectly. If the non conformance goes undetected, it may impact the locking function post-operatively and compromise the bone reduction and construct stability which may lead to non-union/malunion.
