PRI Femoral Impactor Block for knee prosthesis surgery. Orthopedic Manual Surgical Instrument

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration.

The hazard

Potential for uncured adhesive between the metal threaded insert and the impactor block to leak out of the assembled part following the autoclave sterilization process. The Master Bond epoxy serves as a secondary locking mechanism to fix the metal insert to the impactor head. Foreign material has been observed on the impactor block. This has the potential for a biological response.
