FDA (Devices) recall action 88259
The FDA (Devices) publishes a recall like this one as 2 separate product records. They share a firm, a date and a cause; this page is all of them in one place, so the scale of the action is visible rather than spread across 2 pages.
Biolox Delta Femoral Head was packaged and labeled as 170-36-00 (36mm +0), but the device was marked as 170-36-03 (36mm +3.5).
The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.
The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
Exactech is recalling 29 BIOLOX delta femoral head hip prosthesis components due to a discrepancy between the product label and actual device marking. The mismatch could affect proper device identification and surgical placement.
Exactech BIOLOX delta Femoral Head prosthesis components were labeled as one size but marked as a different size. This labeling discrepancy could result in implantation of the incorrect component.
