Description

Superior Approach Resection Guide Assembly. Indicated for primary, fracture, or revision total shoulder replacement for the relief of pain.

Reason

Biomet has initiated this action following an investigation which identified that the slot on the resection guide is offset in the wrong direction. When the slot on the resection guide is offset in the wrong direction, the Steinman pin that is intended to hold the guide into place may not come into contact with the bone.
