Customed Recalls Chole Cystectomy All Endo System Due to Packaging Integrity Concerns

Customed, Inc. is recalling Chole Cystectomy All Endo System kits because packaging integrity may be compromised, potentially leading to product contamination or loss of sterility.

What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The source text explicitly states that the packaging defect 'could result in an injury to the patient due to product contamination or loss of sterility condition.' This aligns with the rubric criterion for 'significant injury/property-damage reports' or risk-of-harm products where injury is a direct potential consequence of a structural defect, warranting a Severe classification.

Plain-English summary

Customed, Inc. is recalling the Chole Cystectomy All Endo System, code 900-3025. The recall involves one lot (131110114) consisting of 20 units. The product is an EO sterilized surgical convenient pack packaged in a polyester/polyethylene breather bag with Tyvek double vents.

The recall was initiated because Customed determined there is a possibility that packaging integrity may be compromised on different catalog numbers across multiple lots. This defect could result in an injury to the patient due to product contamination or the loss of the product's sterility condition.

The affected units were distributed worldwide, including nationwide in the United States (specifically Florida, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands) and in the countries of Tortola, Trinidad, Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, and Mexico. Users should stop using the recalled product and contact the manufacturer for further instructions.
