Skeletal Kinetics Recalls Craniosculpt Bone Void Filler Kits

Skeletal Kinetics is recalling Craniosculpt bone void filler kits because they may not maintain setting characteristics for the labeled shelf life.

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: The recall involves a medical device with a defect that could lead to significant health consequences such as nonunion or delayed union, but the source text does not report any specific injuries or illnesses, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.

Plain-English summary

Skeletal Kinetics, LLC is recalling 32 units of Craniosculpt, CMF Impact, 5CC bone void filler kits (Product Number: C-CMF5CC, UDI: 813845020948, Lot Number: 17040541). The product is indicated to fill bony voids or gaps in the skeletal system, such as those in the extremities, spine, or pelvis, and is designed to resorb and be replaced by bone during the healing process.

The recall was initiated because the bone void filler kits may not maintain their setting characteristics for the labeled shelf-life duration. If used, this defect may increase the required surgical and anesthesia time for the patient. Possible longer-term health consequences include incomplete bone formation, lack of bone formation, delayed union, or nonunion.

The affected products were distributed worldwide, including nationwide distribution in the United States (AL, CA, CO, FL, IL, MO, MS, OH, OK, OR, TN, TX, WI) and in Australia, Canada, South Africa, and Switzerland. Healthcare providers and patients should contact Skeletal Kinetics for further instructions on how to proceed with the recall.
