Orthopedic Tibial Insert Recalled Due to Excessive Radiation Exposure
DePuy Orthopaedics is recalling Attune Revision LPS Tibial Insert devices (Lot JP9016) because they received excessive gamma radiation during manufacturing, which may compromise material properties.
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 recall for an implanted device where material property degradation from over-irradiation could affect device performance. The FDA classification is Class II, and no illnesses or injuries have been reported. The hazard is theoretical but significant for a long-term orthopedic implant.
