Recalls for Broach

Strike plate may dislodge from the broach stem handle during impaction of the device.

The broach handle may fracture at the threaded tip during use, which would result in surgical intervention to retrieve the broach or the trial as the threaded tip fragment prevents attachment of another handle to retrieve the device.

The surface finish inside of the broach is not to specification and the instrument may corrode if cleaned and sterilized according to instructions.

Rejuvenate Broach system was designed in a manner that may result in the potential for a medical calcar fracture.

Greatbatch Medical has voluntarily initiated a Recall for the Linear Straight Broach Handle (Rasp Handle) and EZ Clean" Linear Broach Handle. Greatbatch Medical has received reports that that the product is breaking at the welds and that the locating pin at the distal end of the instrument is breaking off during use.
