Companies usually start a recall weeks before the FDA classifies and publishes it; the gap above is that lag.

Reason for recall

Carotid stent and post-dilation balloon system with integrated embolic protection system has an integrated filter, that due to a wire-to-filter-bond issue, may fail to open following sheath retraction; and if this condition were to occur during a procedure, the result may be loss of intended integrated embolic protection.

Device recalls are issued when a component, software or design fault could cause the device to fail or give wrong readings. Many are corrections applied in the field rather than physical returns.
