This system offers the advantages of the osteotomy blade plates and cannulated instrumentation. Osteotomy plates provide ease of reduction and good rotational stability while maintaining bone stock. Cannulated instruments work over a guide wire for precise placement and safety. The subject device is a Bone Screw designed for use with this system.

Reason for Recall

The firm identified, through complaints that the 3.5MM LOCKING SCREW packaging material was marked as a 3.5mm screw and the part number was correct but that the description indicated a 7.0mm screw. Upon investigation, it has been determined that a lot number 009U2 was packaged and mislabeled internally by OrthoPediatrics.
