Stryker Corporation is recalling 491 Neuro Match Head Soft Touch burs because the device inside the packaging may not match the model number printed on the outer label. For example, a package labeled as a 3.0MM Neuro Match Head Soft Touch bur (model 5820-107-030) may actually contain a 3.0MM Prec Neuro Match Head bur (model 5820-107-530). These surgical tools are used during neurosurgery, spinal surgery, and other bone-cutting procedures. No incidents or injuries have been reported to date.
If a surgeon uses the wrong surgical bur during a procedure due to a labeling error, it could lead to unexpected surgical outcomes or delays while a replacement is found. This mismatch between the package label and the actual contents poses a risk to patients undergoing surgery.
The label may state 5820-107-030 but the package may contain a 5820-107-530 device.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
