Isotis Orthobiologics, Inc.: Filler, Bone Void, Calcium Compound

Recall Summary IsoTis OrthoBiologics is recalling OsteoBallast and Ballast bone graft products (45 x 17.5 mm sizes) because they contain less bone material than intended—approximately 4.5 cc instead of 7.5 cc.

The products were distributed nationwide to hospitals and surgical facilities.
