Titanium Toe Implants Recalled for Incorrect MRI Safety Labeling

BioPro Titanium MPJ toe implants are recalled because labeling incorrectly claims MRI safety without actual testing. Patients should consult their physician before undergoing MRI procedures.

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 a risk-of-harm scenario where patients could be exposed to untested MRI procedures if they rely on the incorrect labeling. Although no injuries or illnesses have been reported, the potential for serious harm exists if patients with this implant undergo MRI without proper medical consultation.
