Turon Shoulder Impaction Fixture REF 804-15-102 The Turon and RSP Impaction Fixtures are used in the operating room on the back table to assemble the shoulder systems for implant. The Turon Fixture is used to connect the Humeral Head to the Humeral Neck, then subsequently to assemble the Humeral Stem to the Head/Neck construct. The RSP Fixture is used to assemble the UHMWPE Socket Inserts to both the RSP Socket Shells and Monoblock Stems.
Reason for recall
During the Turon assembly, the impaction forces caused the polymer, black acetal copolymer form the Impaction Fixture to wear off on the lateral surface of the Humeral Stem titanium plasma spray coating.
