Howmedica recalls TRIDENTII HEMI CLUSTER58F hip implants for potential smooth acetabular shell edges that could cause dislocation in high-risk patients.
The acetabular shell may have excessive deburring, resulting in a smooth surface on the edge of the shell
Howmedica is recalling a specific hip implant model (TRIDENTII HEMI CLUSTER58F) because its acetabular shell might have a smooth edge that increases dislocation risk in patients with high hip dislocation risk. This is serious for those who need hip replacements.
The acetabular shell may have excessive deburring, creating a smooth surface on the edge. This smooth edge could lead to the hip joint dislocating more easily during movement, especially in patients who are at high risk for dislocation.
Patients who have been implanted with this specific hip implant model (TRIDENTII HEMI CLUSTER58F) at high risk of hip dislocation. Those with hip replacements are most at risk.
Check if your hip implant has the model name TRIDENTII HEMI CLUSTER58F. The catalog number is 702-11-58F and lot number 15854353.
Verify your hip implant model matches TRIDENTII HEMI CLUSTER58F with catalog number 702-11-58F and lot number 15854353.
The recall states the acetabular shell may have a smooth edge that could increase dislocation risk in high-risk patients, but it does not say the implant is currently causing injuries.
The recall does not specify a stop-use action; it only asks for verification of the model and lot number.
Check your implant's model name, catalog number (702-11-58F), and lot number (15854353).
