Reason for Recall

Endologix is notifying physicians of patient tailored surveillance recommendations as well as general warnings/precautions for interventions to or through an existing AFX device. This is a follow-up notification to the one that was sent out in December 2016. The updates are related to the observation of Type III endoleaks.

Firm Action

On 07/31/2018, the firm mailed Urgent Important Safety Updates via FedEx ground service with return delivery confirmation. Physicians were informed about the following: 1) Type III endoleak rates, 2) Refined patient-tailored surveillance recommendations, 3) Sizing recommendations, 4) Recommendations for device interventions/ re-interventions. No product return is required. Customers with questions are encouraged to call Customer service 800-983-2284 (5:00 A.M. - 6:00 P.M. Pacific Time). Updated 03/01/2023: Because of the ongoing concerns regarding Type III endoleaks with Endologix AFX Endovascular AAA Graft Systems, the FDA has publicly communicated concerns: https://public4.pagefreezer.com/browse/FDA/21-08-2022T08:51/https:/www.fda.gov/medical-devices/letters-health-care-providers/update-type-iii-endoleaks-associated-endovascular-graft-systems-letter-health-care-providers Update on Risk of Type III Endoleaks with Use of Endologix AFX Endovascular AAA Graft Systems: FDA Safety Communication | FDA (pagefreezer.com) UPDATE: The FDA Reminds Patients and Health Care Providers of the Importance of At Least Yearly, Lifelong Follow-Up with Use of Endologix AFX Endovascular AAA Graft Systems: FDA Safety Communication | FDA (pagefreezer.com) On November 2, 2021, the FDA convened a public meeting of the CDRH Circulatory System Devices Panel of the Medical Devices Advisory Committee to share information and perspectives from interested parties on the benefit-risk profile of the Endologix AFX endovascular graft system focused on the risk of Type III endoleaks.
