“Boston Scientific AMS 7:100 mL Spherical Reservoir Mislabeled as Conceal Reservoir.” GovInfoNow, updated August 19, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/62901-boston-scientific-ams-7-100-ml-spherical-reservoir-mislabeled-as.

Why it’s dangerous

The reservoirs were mislabeled as 100 mL Conceal when they are actually 100 mL Spherical. This could cause confusion during use if someone assumes the reservoir is a different type, potentially leading to improper use.

Who’s affected

Men who own or use the AMS 700 penile prosthesis with specific part numbers (720185-01, 72404156) and lot numbers (26147100, 26154112) are affected. Those most at risk are users who might not notice the label difference.

How to tell if you have this one

Check for part numbers 720185-01 or 72404156 and lot numbers 26147100 or 26154112 on the reservoir packaging. The product is a closed fluid-filled system for penile prostheses.
