Reason

Zimmer Biomet is conducting a medical device recall for various highly polished hip and knee implants that were packaged in a Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) bag. The LDPE bag may become adhered to the highly polished surface, leaving residue or material from the LDPE bag on the implant after it is removed from the bag. This recall is to remove additional lots not previously included in a similar recall initiated in January 2016
