Plain-English summary
Corin Ltd is recalling BIOLOX DELTA MOD HEAD ceramic prosthetics, size 36mm extra long with 8mm offset (REF 104.3615, Lot 503151), due to a labeling error. Specifically, units labeled as size 32XL are actually size 36XL, and units labeled as size 36XL are actually size 32XL.

The labeling error could result in implantation of an incorrectly sized prosthetic head, potentially affecting surgical outcomes and requiring revision procedures.
