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: FDA Class II medical device with a structural defect (component separation) that could pose a risk of harm in a critical implanted device. No injuries or illnesses are reported in the source material, but the actual reported complaints of separation in a vascular graft represent a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported.
