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 Class II recall involving incorrect size markings on surgical implant trial components. The incorrect laser markings create a risk that surgeons may inadvertently implant wrong-sized components during knee replacement surgery, which could compromise surgical outcomes.
Plain-English summary
The FDA is recalling certain lots of Stryker MAKO RESTORIS MultiCompartmental Knee (MCK) Tibial Baseplate Trial components (Size 5 RM/LL, Reference 170615, Lot 26270421) used in partial knee replacement surgery. These trial components are intended for use by surgeons to test implant fit and positioning during knee arthroplasty procedures.
The recalled components contain incorrect size laser markings. If the laser marking does not correspond to the actual component size, surgeons may inadvertently select or implant the wrong-sized component during surgery.
Fifty-two units have been identified and distributed to surgical centers in the United States, Netherlands, Japan, China, India, Korea, and Australia. Healthcare providers who received these components should verify the actual component dimensions match the laser marking before use in any surgical procedure. Surgeons and surgical staff should discontinue use of Lot 26270421 immediately and contact Howmedica Osteonics Corp. for replacement components.
