DePuy TruMatch CT Cut Guide Kit Recalled for Software Alignment Error
DePuy's TruMatch CT Cut Guide Kit is being recalled due to a software coding error that may cause misalignment of preoperative surgical positioning scans, potentially resulting in improper limb alignment during joint replacement surgery.
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 an FDA Class II recall of a surgical guidance device with a software error capable of causing surgical misalignment and limb malalignment. No injuries or hospitalizations are reported in the source, making this a theoretical risk-of-harm situation rather than a confirmed harm event.
Plain-English summary
DePuy Orthopaedics, Inc. is recalling the TRUMATCH CT CUT GUIDE KIT R, patient-specific surgical instruments designed to assist in positioning joint replacement components during surgery and guiding bone marking. The recalled kits include 9 cases identified by lot numbers 28226, 28135, 27612, 27544, 27431, 27407, 26970 (US distribution) and 27476, 27779 (international distribution).
The recall was triggered by a coding error in the Fast3D Segmentation software used to process preoperative CT scans. During the scanning process, the three images required for hip, knee, and ankle positioning may not align properly with each other. This misalignment could cause anatomic landmark locations to be identified incorrectly, potentially resulting in improper limb alignment during the joint replacement surgical procedure.
The affected kits were distributed to surgical facilities in California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Texas, and Washington, as well as to facilities in Poland and the United Kingdom.
