Why Was This Recalled?

Stryker has discovered that the internal profile of the Triathlon Tritanium Tibial Component (Baseplate), size 4, is potentially oversized. Due to a manufacturing issue in Lot Number CTD44301, there may be a witness mark (taper) at the bottom of the internal profile of the baseplate. The taper prevents the insert from locking on the baseplate.
