- Zimmer Biomet is conducting a medical device recall for two lots of Comprehensive Humeral stems. The lots were commingled during the manufacturing process and were etched with incorrect lot numbers. The size difference between the two stem sizes is 1.1 inches. It is visually recognizable by the user that the box label does not match the contents of the box.
