Reason for recall
There is a possibility that the inner cap could open when the outer cap is removed or the entire inner tube remains in the outer tube. In both instances this could prevent the screw from being removed and used causing a surgical delay. The inner tube should remain closed and retained in the outer cap when presented to the sterile field.
