Onkos Surgical, Inc. has recalled 24 units of the ELEOS Male-Female Midsection (40mm), which is a key component of the ELEOS Limb Salvage System. The recall was issued because the midsection's external taper may not properly fit or assemble with the internal taper of the matching femur component during surgery. While no injuries or incidents have been reported, this mechanical challenge could occur while a patient is undergoing a procedure.
If the surgical components fail to assemble correctly during an operation, it could lead to significantly longer surgery times and extended exposure to anesthesia. In some cases, an improperly seated component might lead to the eventual mechanical failure of the implant.
