What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall for a risk-of-harm medical device product where no illnesses or injuries have been reported. The hazard—potential sterile barrier damage leading to contamination—is theoretical rather than confirmed.

Plain-English summary

DeRoyal Industries Inc is recalling 32 Head and Neck surgical procedure kits (REF 89-4473) that contain B.Braun Medical Norm-Ject 2 Piece Syringes. The affected kits have lot codes 59205650 and 59496207, both with expiration dates of November 1, 2027.

The recall was initiated because the sterile packaging barrier could potentially be damaged due to damage to the luer tip of the syringe. A compromised sterile barrier may allow bacterial or other contamination of the surgical instruments inside the kit.

The affected kits were distributed in Pennsylvania. Users who have received these kits should verify the lot code to determine if their kits are part of this recall.
