Stryker Dynamic Mesh Mislabeled with Incorrect Catalog Number
Stryker shipped 63 units of cranial mesh labeled as catalog 56-90614 (Gold) but actually containing 56-90314 (Blue) mesh. The mislabeling may cause procedural delays.
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: This is an FDA Class II recall involving a labeling error where the wrong catalog number was used on the packaging. No illnesses, injuries, or deaths have been reported. The hazard—procedural delay—is stated as potential rather than actual.
Plain-English summary
Stryker Leibinger GmbH & Co. KG has recalled 63 units of their 1.5/1.7MM Dynamic Mesh used for cranial reconstruction and fixation. The affected units were labeled with catalog number 56-90614 (90x90 Gold Mesh) but actually contained the different product type 56-90314 (90x90 Blue Mesh), lot number 270644.
The mislabeling creates a product identity discrepancy that may cause delays in surgical procedures. Healthcare facilities nationwide that received these units should verify that the actual contents match the labeling to ensure the correct product is used for intended surgical procedures.
