Reason for Recall

Medicalplastic s.r.l. is conducting a voluntary field action to remove a group of Ilizarov Wire Tensioners due to a manufacturing error. An internal washer of the Ilizarov Wire Tensioner has been made in a wrong plastic material that could wear and break during the sterilization process in autoclave. Consequently this could cause malfunctioning of the tensioner.
