Integra Recalls Salto Talaris Ankle Prosthesis Due to Labeling Error

Integra LifeSciences is recalling Salto Talaris and Integra XT Revision ankle prostheses because the labels incorrectly identify the metallic coating material.

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 the issue is a labeling error regarding the metallic coating symbol. There are no reported illnesses or injuries, and the hazard is theoretical, fitting the 'Moderate' criteria for minor labeling errors or low-risk issues.
