Reason for Recall

Certain Pinnacle Cup devices may potentially exhibit an oversized "minor diameter", which could lead the Apex HE to thread through the shell of the cup without stopping or to protrude internally as a result of "cross-threading". If cross-threading occurs, physicians will not feel the positive stop of the Apex HE against the cup.

Firm Action

On December 15, 2020, the firm distributed Urgent Medical Device Correction letters to customers. The letter informed customers that there is a potential for an oversized "minor diameter" on certain Pinnacle Cup devices. The correction is intended to advise physicians of the oversize condition of the hole in the cup, which could lead the Apex HE to thread through the shell of the cup without stopping or to protrude internally as a result of cross-threading. This may occur if the Apex HE is manipulated or toggled while threading it through the hole of certain Pinnacle Cup devices. If cross-threading occurs, physicians will not feel the positive stop of the Apex HE against the cup. Customers were asked to review the information in the letter and complete and return the included customer response form. If any of the affected products have been forwarded to another facility, please contact that facility and provide a copy of the recall notification to the relevant personnel. Post a copy of the notice in a visible area for awareness. If you have any questions, please contact your Sales Consultant.
