Description

Link Patella Glide Resection Guide- For the implantation of the Endo-Model Knee System as part of a total knee arthroplasty procedure. Product Code: 15-2530/05

Reason

Mislabeled: Angle and height of the device marked as L(large) corresponds to the small/medium dimensions due to a product mix-up. This may result in too little bone material resected and not fit correctly leading to extended surgery time
