Description

SRS FAST SET PUTTY 3 CC BONE VOID FILLER-STERILE, Part Number SRS-005-FSP, Lot number N001101. Bone void filler.

Reason

A recent shipment carrying Norian SRS was lost by the carrier. Since the product was lost before final product release testing, Synthes is unable to confirm that Part Number SRS-005-FSP- Lot Number N001101 meets final product release requirements. The product contains all final labeling and cannot be visually distinguished from the product that has met final product release requirements.
