Conformis iTotal Knee Replacement System Recalled for Incorrect Component

ConforMIS, Inc. is recalling a specific unit of the iTotal Cruciate Retaining Knee Replacement System because an incorrect femoral component was distributed.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text explicitly states no illnesses or injuries are reported and the hazard is a distribution error (incorrect component) rather than a high-risk pathogen or structural defect causing immediate harm. This aligns with the 'Moderate' criteria for low-risk contamination or voluntary precautionary recalls where injury has not been reported.
