Reason for Recall
Certain PANTA Nails from one lot were incorrectly manufactured. The internal thread for certain PANTA Nails (Part Number 500050ND; Lot Number: E7XX) may present an insufficient depth and may not allow the engagement of the threaded part of the compression device. The risks presented include: an increase in surgery time, or the implantation of a nail less ideally suited for the patient's anatomy
