Alphatec Spine, Inc. has recalled 1,127 loose implants and 14 surgical kits from its Calibrate CCX-O and CCX-S Interbody System lines, totaling 1,511 implants. These devices, used in spinal fusion procedures, were distributed to hospitals and surgical centers nationwide between October and December 2024. The recall was initiated following reports of the implants collapsing after surgery, which can lead to serious patient complications and the need for additional operations.
The spinal implants can collapse after they have been surgically implanted, causing a loss of spinal stability and potential pain for the patient. This defect may require patients to undergo additional invasive corrective surgeries to replace or repair the collapsed implant.
