Orthofix MINIRAIL external fixation devices recalled for incorrect model labeling

What this means

  • If you received or used an Orthofix MINIRAIL device, verify the actual model number on the device itself matches the label.
  • Contact your Orthofix distributor or Orthofix U.S. LLC if your device label does not match the model.
  • Do not use a device until you have confirmed the label matches the actual model.
