Waldemar Link GmbH & Co. KG is recalling the LINK BiMobile Dual Mobility System E-Poly Liner because the packaging incorrectly identifies the insert as type 'F' when it is actually type 'G'. This surgical implant is used in patients with hip joint fractures or mobility-limiting diseases to restore function. Because the label does not match the product inside, surgical teams may not have the correct size or type ready during an operation, which could result in a delay in surgery while a correct replacement is located.
The mismatch between the outer packaging and the actual surgical insert can cause unexpected delays during a hip replacement or repair procedure. These delays while a patient is under anesthesia increase the risk of surgical complications or the need for additional medical intervention.
