Description

Milex Gellhorn Flexible under the following labels: 1) Gellhorn Flexible w/Short Stem Pessary, REF MXKPGSS2-1/4, 2-1/4" (57 mm) with Kit, 2) Gellhorn Flexible w/Short Stem Pessary, REF MXPGSS2-1/4, 2-1/4" (57 mm) without Kit, 3) Gellhorn Flexible w/Short Stem Pessary, REF MXPGSS2-3/4, 2-3/4" (70 mm)

Reason

The affected Milex Gellhorn pessaries were incorrectly manufactured with a long stem (2.170 ), instead of a short stem (1.670 or 1.960 nominal height) as required. The length discrepancy does not meet the released print dimensions.
