Limacorporate S.p.A is recalling 179 PRIMA TT Glenoid Monoblock and Modular reverse shoulder baseplates. These medical implants may have peripheral holes that were manufactured out of specification, which can prevent screws from sitting correctly. This defect can lead to the implant loosening or the surgical screw moving from its intended position after the procedure. These devices were distributed across several U.S. states including Illinois, Missouri, California, Indiana, Michigan, and Oklahoma.
If the baseplate holes are out of specification, the surgical screws may not secure the implant properly to the bone, which can cause the shoulder implant to loosen or fail, potentially requiring additional surgery to correct.
